Carl Brouhard quality?
I recently ordered some covers and a shift linkage from Carl Brouhard. One member has commented on the black parts turning purple after a while. Has anyone else experienced this? Any other comments on the general quality of their stuff would be appreciated too.
Yeah, I understand it's a little late to start this thread, but there ya go.....

I can't comment on the Carl Brouhard stuff, but the concept makes sense. I had Rineharts on an Ultra Classic and the Black Anodized Tips started turning purple. Cool thing was they matched my Black Cherry Ultra and I liked it.

I had a Rinehart 2-1 on my old FB. The tip turned purple on it and they replaced it. At some point they fixed that purple issue and none of the ones after that had the problem. Or so I am told. The replacement they sent me never turned purple.

I have a few items of theirs, they are chrome though, but are very high quality, no issues whatsoever. and I really like them and get good comments from them. had them a couple years now, still look new

Quite often black anodizing if left in the sun for extended periods of time or heated to a certain temperature will eventually fade a bit.
I had a PM air cleaner that had the same thing happen to it as my bike sits in the sun all day every day.
