You're right, CVOs don't have it chromed, they don't even have the inner primary cover chromed. I planned to have the swingarm chromed too. I already bought the OEM chrome inner primary cover 60815-08A and I'll mount all these parts together. Probably I'll also add the chrome left cylinder base cover 32042-07 to complete the left side.
Although I like the look of all these nice covers you will have quite a lot if dirt accumulating underneath and behind these covers (e.g. cylinder base cover). This may cause early surface corrosion of the covered areas especially in regions with a rather corrosive climate...
BTW: I think the Black and Silver CVO ('13) came with a chromed swing arm...or was it just PC

Reason: Picture of CVO added
Yep, that's the only reason why I haven't mounted the left base cylinder cover yet ,still have to decide about it. Regarding the inner primary cover (p.n. 60815-08A) no problem since it'll totally replace the stock black powdered one.
Black'n'chrome 2013 CVO doesn't have chrome swingarm either, it's a light painted grey but no chrome. When I saw it the first time I was also convinced it was chromed but after seeing some other pics I realized it wasn't.
Got this notion I'd like to mount a second headlight so I'd have a 4 1/2 incher above and behind a 5 3/4 incher. It seems the Breakout Alternator should have sufficient **** for this. Anyone else tried/trying something like this ?

That would definitely be original.

To answer your question Nostradamus74, I am planning on keeping the black break calipers for now, I may change my mind later, after I see how everything looks put together. I already have the chrome break rotors that will be getting put on.
