nice work, i actually saw a guy this weekend with the exact same setup. as a note, you might wanna pull the sheilds and hit the crossover with a little paint. the black makes it really show through where as w/ the chrome you didn't notice it much. i just hung some towels between the pipes and the bike and gave it a real quick hit.
just re-did mine a few weeks ago for the season, cost me 8 bucks.

it's my understanding that no one produces that stuff anymore. they stopped once ceramic coating got popular.

Looking at your bike over & over made me keep this one in my mind. But i didn't do it until I had an idea that was just a bit different.

RE: Do-It-Yourself Black Exhaust
I did wind up painting the mirrors a couple weeks ago. It's holding up pretty well, except phor the ball and socket where the mirrors move phor adjustment. But I knew that woulddn't last, I just had to minimize it the best I could.
Got even crappier pix of them. Still need a replacement cable phor our camera.
