Default Black Wrinkle Forwards for FXD

I'm a recent convert from mids to forwards. When I added my rear peg mounts to my FXD, I went with black wrinkle finish to match the mids. When I wanted to go to forwards, I wanted blank wrinkle. Unfortunately, the forward kits come as either gloss black or chrome.

The solution came to me after seeing a Fatbob up close. Fatbobs have black wrinkle finish on the peg mount and frame mounts for the forwards. I did have to piece together the kit which added some additional cost, but I do like the way it looks. Posting this in case it's helpful to someone else.

not sure if this helps but as small as the forward controls are you can probably work out a deal with a powder coater and get them done in wrinkle black, but just wait for him to be running a full oven and maybe lower your cost just a bit...just a thought...
