Default Less chrome, more blackout....

Continuing to apply the blackout theme on my F-Bob, I swapped out the chrome gas/fuel gauge caps for the black flush-mount equivalents. Really wanted to eliminate the fuel gauge cap altogether as the speedo/tach combo has a digital gauge built-in, but it seems the fuel gauge cap needs to stay in the loop for the digital gauge to work.

Also gave the chrome dash/console some buffing and the rattle-can treatment.

Looks great! Makes me wish they would work on my 2000 FXDL, but I read that they won't.

Looks good. I have the same kit and I love it. FYI - if ever you want to go all out with the black and blue LED, the Dakota digital speedo/tach is plug and play and appears the same os your gas guage (completely black when off, then blue LED digital readouts of speed, RPM, gear and other info. It's a really addition. I haven't done it yet myself, but it is in my plans for sure.

Can you do a quick write up on the console mod? Or get me a link to a write up? Please.
