Default Your Ideas for my 98 custom.

Hey everyone ......here is a picture of my 98 softail custom...it has custom paint and lots of chrome....just added the drag pipes(torque cones included and wow what a difference) so I have a cool retro look and awesone loud growl. Over the winter I want to do few more things to her but I would love some ideas for Mods or add ons that you think might look good on her. So please tell me what you think would look good...if theres mods be specific and include as much tech data and or pictures as you can....if its a certain cosmetic thing you think will look nice please feel free to show example pics.....I will let ya all know which ones I go with.

Thanks and here we go....

Semi gloss black front end. Powdercoat the lowers and 3trees and rear braces. Maybe the rocker boxes in wrinkle black. Black derby cover and timer cover. Black headlight bucket. Black spokes for the front wheel.
