Exactly what I did going on 10 +years now and still no issues....Great price and customer service support....Highly recommended....Either way congrats on your chromed front forks, a mod very few do or don't care to do, but it's very noticeable and looks awesome.......Now the 2019 comes blacked out for yah and looks killer with those wheels.
good luck and we need pixs..

Joe at ***** Shiny is a stand up guy...nothing but good reviews. I spoke to him a week ago and ordered chrome sliders and cow bells. He'd even chrome my sliders rather than doing an exchange but the problem with that is voids in the castings that may show as pits and you don't know they're there until they get polished prior to chrome plating. He said he uses those for the guys that want black powder coating since they won't show up like they do on chrome.

Hmmm, maybe you had too many clips on them?
Small % don't like them but it is small.
