Default shock covers

Sup fellas,

so I'm planning on doing some winter mods to my 48 and was looking for shocks that have black shock covers on them. I know progressive 412's come with an option for chrome covers the black ones only come in a 12 inch height. I like the 11 inch height so that wouldn't work for me. Does anyone know if they other brands sell shocks with the covers on them?

has anyone bought and installed the progressive 412 shocks iwth the chrome cover on their sporty for me to take a look at?

When you say "covers" do you mean the cover for the top bolt?

Here is an option that is black and comes in 11"....Bitubo's

Progressive will sell you black covers to fit the 11 inch shocks if you call them.
I've bought covers and springs individually from them.
