harley makes rattlecan wrinkle black. It's a bit more expensive than other brands but it matches perfect. That's what I used on my deby cover and horn cover.

Would the newer bikes like the Street Bob use wrinkle black or texture black paint? I thought I read somewhere the newer bikes used texture black on the engine.

I used the HD wrinkle black on my highway pegs and they look great, don't have quite the texture of the wrinkle black bits on the bike though.

My 'heel boards' are powder coated, cost me $10.
