Default Blacking Out the Fat Bob

Work in progress... Trying to get the Fat Bob all blacked out.

Looks great! Everytime I see a Black denim fatbob this nice, I start questioning myself. "Why did I buy vivid black?"

Looks good! I've been doing the same thing just a little at a time except I did paint my tank copper color.

Nicely done going in the same direction on my 09....
Are the bars on your bike HD Street Slamers?
If so how do you like them?

There is one guy on here with a Fat Bob that is completely blacked out, completely. I can't remember his user name but the bike has quite a few custom, one off parts as well. It's sick!

Looks good bro..... I blacked mine out too which is funny cause now I started to add more chrome to it..... I really liked it when it was all black but now that I have added some chrome I like the contrast of the two.. Are you gonna do the wheels? also what bars are you running?

Blacked out Bobs need the solo seat.

Have not decided about the wheels yet, was thinking powder coat black. The bars are Wild 1 chubbys 6" pullback. I had pullback risers and the stock bar, but liked the look of the integrated drags. I like the feel of the Wild 1's...
