I recently purchased a set of chrome fork sliders and dust covers for my 06 Softail Standard. When I opened the box, I realized that it did not come with chrome bolts. Now I'm thinking what other bolts etc.. do I need to make the chrome front end complete. I thinking chrome bolts for the front brake caliper. Am I missing anything else?
You can't get chrome mounting bolts for the caliper, I have tried. You can get the little snap on covers which I like a lot because they will pull off. But they grab on pretty good so they don't fall off when riding. You can get the chrome hardware kit for the caliper, but you need to remove all of the stock bolts from the caliper in order to install the new stuff.
But you will need the chrome nuts for the axle cap and chrome drain plug screws. Might not be a bad idea to get the chrome fender hardware too if you really want to finish it off.
