Switch Covers
Sometimes the easiest mods can be the most frustrating lol
Ive done all my own mods so far and i never cussed more than today with these switches.
Anyway all done now. Think I am going to have the housing powder coated gloss black and still need new chrome levers and new mirrors.
Installed chrome switches, chrome hardware, chrome cable/Banjo covers and my master cylinder cover didnt come in yet.
Pics
Cant see the Cable/Banjo covers very well in pic

Nice look. I've always just seen black switches and chrome housing. Yours is a nice touch in the opposite direction.

Nice. I was planning on doing the same thing. Why were they such a pain?

You are correct, for a little touch it is a pain in the ***. But I'd do it again in a heartbeat...
