It's funny.. I actually love the quad-tone of flat/gloss/satin/chrome.

Nice bike I like the FBLow's I would start by removing the rear seat and the reflectors. They are small enough to become an eyesore and not big enough for good visability, If your concered about night visibility (like most of us are) I would go for something more noticeable. I like the helmet sticker idea.
Seat and Reflectors are now nothing more than a memory.
Took a little bit more work than I had originally anticipated to get the rear reflectors off. The reflectors ripped right off.....the glue took a bit of work.
But its all done. Now to move onto the upgrades that actually cost money....

Consider the wife replaced. If she's got a problem with it, she knows where the door is.

I prefer a blend as well, i.e. not all black nor too much chrome. The signature photo of my bike shows various option parts, including flush mounted fuel cap / gauge, flamed levers, different grips, laydown license plate holder, smoked lenses (front & rear turn signals, brake), covers (primary, timing, derby), sissybar, sideplates, windshield, saddlebags, exhaust, intake, etc. The photo was also taken at Hoover Dam soon after the new bridge was opened. I'm also having a new horn cover made, which will be black powder coat with a crome emblem.
