Default Dominion Bronze?

I searched the forum and didn't see any talk but a set of rider foot pegs on a Street Bob....so.....
Has anyone bought a discernible number of Dominion pieces in the bronze finish? Id like to see them. I have two visions in my head for my bike, one I asked about in another thread regarding a CVOs pieces and the other is maybe going this route. My '19 Fat Boy 114 is two-tone industrial grey denim and black denim. In the sun there is definitely a bronze tint to the grey and the pinstripe is a gold/bronze color. That being said, its a very unorthodox approach, though I have never been considered normal. I dig the industrial machine look but aside from the catalog Fat Bob pics I haven't really seen them applied anywhere else. Anyone? Pics? Thoughts?

So not any response to that. Today I went to one of local dealers and while browsing I asked my friend at the parts counter about the bronze pieces and he said no one is really buying them. Will that particular color be a flop?

I love the bronze... Just keeps getting better and better. Looking forward to seeing it in ten years. My primary cover is even turning green in some areas.

The hand grips were kind of slippery though with certain gloves, so I wrapped with with batting grip... Looks and feels great, plus the end caps still look bronze.

Hell, I'd take an entire bronze bike if I could get it.

The bronze is a great color, I was drooling over the collection when I was up there for the 115th. If I hadn't already done my bike entirely in the brass collection plus aftermarket brass pieces, I would have totally done it in Dominion bronze.

Still intrigued by the mirrors, but I haven't seen one in person to measure how they would compare to my existing long-stem tapered mirrors. If the Dominion place the mirror higher and wider than the long stem tapered mirrors, I would definitely get them.

I think it looks awesome. Love to do my next bike in bronze. Or if I want to redo my current ride, to switch up looks

I'm starting w/ that gas cap. I'm gonna get the grips. Jet-Hot is doing my derby cover, air cleaner cover and heat shield in a close color. I hope that it (the bronze) will all come together nicely.

Hmm. I like the way this looks, maybe I'll start changing things on my streetbob.
