sideshots - black or chrome???

so sideshots it will be for my 2012 iron 883. most do black but kinda like the way the stock chrome pipes contrast. i plan on wrapping them with lava wrap so toy will see a little black or chrome. whatcha all think.

chrome is less common and if you like it go for it but if you wrap them wont you discard the heat shields anyways? the pipes are the same regardless of shields.

Yea, the pipes under the heatshields are the same, so unless you plan on painting the pipes you'll see chrome either way.
