Default Night train Bolt kit

I was wondering what bolt kit you guys were using to up grade the hardware on your bikes. Chrome, stainless, etc.... My bolts are already starting to oxidize and I am looking for a little project when winter comes.

It all depends on what you want to see. If you like chrome then go with that, but I think stainless looks badass with the nightrain.

It really depends on your setup. Me personally I would go chrome unless, your entire bike is all blacked out.

u can always hit those stock bolts with a mothers ball n some polish, they clean up fast that way. hard to clean the polish off the black wrinkle though, so steer clear of that, or be careful.
