Give me another week and i'll be alot lighter in the chrome department. Not blacking it out but getting rid of the bike chrome pieces (wheels, exhaust, air cleaner,horn cover, forks and struts) Looking for vintage as opposed to getting rid of chrome.

I'm pretty anti chrome myself. I had a vivid black Nightster with black pipes, and now my Street Bob is Denim Black. As soon as I got the bob home I put on the black finned derby and timing covers, horn cover from a Night Train and I'm swapping my chrome belt guard for a black one and a can of denim black spray paint. Now all I really need to do is get my new pipes, A/C and mirrors, the other few chrome bits can stay for awhile.

Here's mine. It's not that I don't like chrome, it's just I think black works better with my bike.

A little chrome goes a long way! Less polish, more ride time! Would love to do my rims, just too darn much $$$.
