I think the blacked out look has it's place and that's on a bike that is blacked out. If you pick that theme then awesome!

Otherwise chrome is king or a nice balanced mix which is tricky to make work.

Imop!

I think you answered your own question. Who cares what others think, if you like it, keep it! It's your ride!
Oh...And I like the chrome...haha

The chrome tips help tie in the chrome shields. Without them I would vote black. With the chrome tips, I vote for the chrome shields.

Thanks guys. Looks like a mix of opinions, I like the chrome. I do realize that it's my bike and that's all should matter but at the same time I respect the opinions of other as well. I am going to keep the chrome. I guess my Dad can talk his crap when I am passing his Shovel Head on the left. Lol
