Default Switch Housings

Anyone painted or powdercoated there switch housings and lever brackets. I would like them to be a gloss black.

I am trying to mix some chrome and gloss black on the bars.

I have my new bars installed and I have ordered the chrome switch caps, chrome master cylinder cover, chrome mounting bolts, and Chrome clutch ferrule cover/banjo bolt cover. Will order some chrome levers soon also.

Just clear coat them and they will probably be glossy.

and you know this! mine are gloss... but i used a powder i was shooting on another frame for a buddy... it is not much more of a gloss than the stock... i plan on doing a high gloss black on the other set of bars i am setting up for plug and play bar swaps... i did a set of levers in high gloss white for a buddy they looked sick! on my levers on my bob i shaved off the ball and ground it square... then i powdered them in ultra gloss black! love it!

Those look good.

I think I am going to buy a extra set. Then try and find a Powder coater to get them done.
