Default Chromed my Emblems (Should I put them back on?)
I painted my emblems chrome to match my shields. My question is should I leave the tank blank or put them back on? Just want to get some opinions.

I think the bike looks good with some chrome (or painted) accents to break up the all black.

I like without. You have the SE logo on the air cleaner, and the DS logo on your swingarm.

I'd skip puttin the emblems on and and if you want a harley badge on there, get some one to reshoot you tank with whatever design you comeup with... eventually i'm gonna have the decals taken off mine and have either Blackline or DX badges painted on the bike along with another design... but its your bike dude... do what you want, and forget what anyone else opinion about it is... as long as your happy, no one else should give a flyin (insert expletive here lol)

I think both look good. That being said, you chromed them, might as well put them on.

For your bike I'd say without but it's yours.
Put the chromed ones on the Christmas tree next year, not a waste lol.
