New 2011 FXDC..........bike is black....I'm getting forward controls for it................question.................black or chrome controls? What do you think? Well, the problem is, I'd kinda like to SEE a bike with chrome, and a bike with black, so I can decide. I'm thinking black would be TOO black, but if I saw them on a bike like mine, I'd know for sure. Anybody got pics of black on an FXDC?

Being a fan of chrome I went with the chrome ones. Here are the chrome forwards on my 2011 Super Glide Custom.
