Just Can't Decide
I have an 09 Pewter Fat Bob. I am going with the Silver and Black theme. I have black V&H Shorties, Black Fin Timer and Derby covers, and powder coated flat black belt guard, horn and air filter cover. I have two more groups to do: the Forks trees, and handle bars and the fender rails, turn signals, detach sissy bar, and shocks.
Prior to this week, I just knew I was going to have it all powder coated flat black. Then, while looking for some pics of those have went a similar route, I started reading post about contrast and that what makes a bike stand out. Now I can't decide what color black to paint which parts. I'm also having second thoughts about leaving some pieces chrome (turn signals for example). The frame, forks, and swingarm, and handlebar risers are already gloss black.
Need some advice. Do I go with my original game plan or switch it up a little. What should I have powder coated and what color? What should I leave chrome.
Here is what she looks like (Bags are detachable):

I wold do your heat shields to match your paint, your headlight bucket to match your paint, the trees gloss black to match the frame... sissy bar i would leave chrome because your frame rails are chorme. i would black out the dash, turn sigs, shock covers, linkage for the shifter, forward controls... and see what you get from there...
