The bike looks hot. I have been thinking of the blacked out look. Being that my bike is black pearl, I am thinking more along the lines of black chrome... anyone have pics of a black pearl bike that has a blacked out theme on the front?

Thanks Travis-
I was looking into Black chrome as well but was unhappy with the results I was seeing from various chromers.

Echo the others in "looks nice RKK!"
Saw the Judge Wheel about two months ago, haven't even considered any others.
Debating putting a solid black wheel on back or just go with two of the Roland Sands.

OK...This may be a dumb question, but I have been considering "Blacking-Out" my front lowers as pictured here, but a buddy of mine said that he had seen it on a bike that had been done a couple of years earlier, and that over time, the black was showing wear badly (from the uppers) and that it looked worse than if it had never been done at all. Any comments from the guys that have already done this? Does the black wear off or scratch over time????
