I've seen this before somewhere on here but I did this little mod the other day and thought other Luxe owners might like to see the result.

I just taped off everything except the inserts which I wiped down with some denatured alcohol, hit it with some red scotchbrite to scuff it up, cleaned again, used a tack cloth to remove any dust and sprayed it with some Rustoleum gloss black paint for plastic. About 6 light coats about 3-4 minutes apart and then one final coat about 30 minutes later. Waited until morning and peeled all the tape off. I think it came out great. It would be nice though if the moco would just make a version that matched right out of the box.

Anyway, here's the result...

Love it! I've got one of those dash panels sitting in the garage right now, I may have to try that on the weekend.

 

That is Brilliant

 

I did the same thing to mine

 

That's looks like it WAS factory! Very nice. If the MoCo did offer that though, it wouldn't be as much fun.

 

Very true!

I bet someone could make a little money by selling black adhesive backed metal inserts or vinyl decals that would fit.

 

........ Nice

 

Nice work as always.

I was going to purchase that dash panel for my bike but I have grown to like the leather panel.

Just noticed you bought some fishtail ends. Nice. I love the fishtail look.

 

Thanks man, yeah put the tips on last week - I like em too. Next up are the chrome fork sliders, chrome upper back tins, chrome cowbells, and progressive monotube shocks to drop the front an inch. I have everything except the shocks so I'll probably start wrenching on everything next week since the weather is supposed to be crap anyway.

 

You did an extremely clean job at that, looks great.
