I used Chrome XC. Once on, I used shrinkwrap to hold it in position.

I was thinking of using chrome wire tubing cover (fancy deco stuff they use on hot rods) and shrink wrap for wiring

You can usually find that kind of stuff at the larger truck stops too!
Chrome valve caps an nut covers in all shapes and sizes also!

I just did this on the SG. Brake side came out perfect. Clutch is having a bit of an issue. The cable moves when I squeeze the lever making the wrap bunch up a bit. I will have to tweak it a bit yet. Think small cable tie right at the fairing. If I remember, I will post photos tonight.

Not sure if I like it yet. It does set off the new painted fairing and chrome bars/controls.

Here you go. Make sure to use 4-1 shrink tubing. Still not sure if I am going to keep it. It just has to last one season till next winter's projects.
