Copper parts

I like how much darker copper is compared to brass and bronze parts. Can anybody post links of who offers pegs, etc.....

If you got pics, feel free to post them. Trying to see how it would look against chrome.

Anything copper would need clearcoating over it, unless you like green parts.

I haven't seen any copper parts offered, but you could just get your parts copper plated.

If you can get your parts to bare metal they have a chemical that is as easy as clean,spraybottle,neutralize,clear coat. Pretty cool stuff.

I'm getting grips and pegs with copper inserts from Leroy Thompson. Thinking of powder coating my new bars black and the new risers copper to compliment the grips.

Cool, I just talked to Luana at Lifetimecoatings and they charge about $15 to coat a foot peg.

I'm going to start gathering parts so I can send it to them.
