Looks great. Nice save on the ST fender. I went with the 200mm bobber fender from Heartland. Just bought the fender, not the whole kit. It came ready to paint, and instead of drilling my swingarm, my local indy just fabbed a bracket that clamps very tightly on the swingarm and mounts the fender. No bottoming out as it's still mounted to fender. Your project is going great.

Saint,
I don't really know how many inches I lowered it but I went with the -2 tubes, and the progressive drop-in kit with just a 1/2" PVC spacer in it. The instuctions said to use a 1" PVC spacer, so I must have roughly a 4 1/2" drop. When you see it in person next to a stock front end it is unbelievable.

Let me start by saying that I think your bike looks bad, man. (the good bad)
But since you're asking, I think the color/texture of the thunderheader kind of clashes with the direction that you're going in. I am by no means an expert on bike style (hell, I run the ubiquitous v & h shortshots) but i think these pipes would look cool as hell on your bike.

I like the Thunder header on your bike.. I think the color of the pipe blends well with the blacked out casings on the Train. I also like the Exile pipes, they give it that drag look. Either one looks great but I am leaning towards the thunder header. Killer looking bike.
