Got my mine to match my bike and its perfect.&nbsp\\;I understand&nbsp\\; you have the anny colors. There is one at the local dealer that is black and you really cant tell any difference other then its shiny so i say go with another color.

black pearl looks great a must to do. One regret If you do the inner fairing have the lowers chromed while it is taken apart. Labor is nothing at this point.

My dealer had an anniversary with the inner fairing copper. It looked really sweet. If I had only seen that before I picked up my bike, I probably would have bought it. Now I'm resorting to having my inner fairing painted.

I'm actually taking mine in today to get the inner fairing installed. I ordered the Copperhead Pearl, took 30 days to get here and 3 hours labor. I'll post before &amp\\; after pics once completed. ride safe.

I had mine shot vivid black with fine silver flake on my '04 birch white police model EG.&nbsp\\; I have since seen the '08 SE Ultra with a white inner fairing and prefer the blackjust personal preference:
&nbsp\\;

&nbsp\\;
The only two-tone inner fairing I recall is lkr0's\\; shoot him a PM if you can't find it or he doesn't post a pic.
&nbsp\\;
Good luck with your project.

Question to anyone with the fairing painted.&nbsp\\; Do you get any glare from the sun of the gloss paint while you are riding.&nbsp\\; I was thinking about doing this but a friend suggested against it for that reason
