thoughts on what else to black out

so, i've been running just the mid pegs and have decided i'm gonna go back to mids (with some highway pegs) and i'm gonna need to send in the brake pedal to get coated black and thought, while i'm there, might as well do a few other things.

i'm pretty sure i'm gonna do the elbow on my air cleaner (wrinkle) and i'm trying to decide if i should do anything else. the obvious suggestion is the fender struts (wrinkle or satin) but i'm afraid that will be too much black in the back (course....i currently think it's too much chrome in the back..!)

there is the triple trees but i'm not sure i wanna deal with that much labor.

i'm pretty happy with the little bits of shiny that i do have...

.....any other thoughts...?

btw....i also think i'm gonna put on the black front rotor.

I was just looking at your bike on another thread....nice bike! I would definately do the front end....trees, and sliders! I think that would finish off your look! Already looks great, but IMO, thats what I would do.

Chris, I agree with the strut covers,
and,
I would also consider the derby cover,
and,
the linkage from the forward controls across to the trans control.
Battery Box band?? maybe.

elbow onthe air cleaner sounds like a plus as well.

Of course your machine already looks very good,
A few changes may be a plus.

Keep us updated.

Have you checked out the New Harley rims they have on thier site? I am sure they are not eveyones cup of tea but I like them and I think they would look awesome on your ride! IMO...
I would like to get a set for my ride but too much $$$$.

Later,
Joe
