I have dark plue denim on my 08 and the inner is already faded on the top edges. I think I'm gonna have it painted. Not sure matching the blue will look good or not. I think I'll just have it painted flat black.

Man you rock!!!!

I had been told there was no touch up or paint available to match the sterling silver and that it had to be sent back to harley for new tins instead of being fixed...they show the color available and a touch up pen as well which is just what I need for the inner fairing and a few small scratches!!

thanks

I did mine and it is one of the coolest mods I did
I had my painter do it (I think it cost me $200) he did a awesome job considering all os the curves on that thing I doubt that anyone other than a professional would be able to do as good of a job as I have on mine
I topped it off with the spun aluminum gauges
it looks bad ***
