What he said - black (says he who clearly has a chrome habit)

If you're going black, get the black pipes. Having a half/half bike doesn't look very good IMO. Either chrome or black should be the dominant exterior.

RE: Black or Chrome
Right now I am leaning towards chrome just b/c I am not 100% sure on the black wheels and bars. The next three things I have planned in no particular order are Chrome Front end, Chrome Controls, and Fat Cat. I may leave everything chrome and just keep the few black accents as they are. Thanks for all the feedback. A lot more black supporters then I expected.

RE: Black or Chrome
Looking at your bike as it currently is, I'd say chrome would look the best. If you go black on the bars and wheels, I'm not as sure. I think chrome might still look best based on your paint and the rest of the engine chrome, but black would also probably look sharp. Lots of help here, I know <shrug>... I think your bike will look great whichever way you go!
