It looks good but definatley need to chrome out everything on the bars and maybe paint the inner fairing gloss black to contrast the new chrome.

I like apes but I'm not diggin them with a fairing. I think it kinda defeats the purpose of having a fairing too. To each his own. If ya like 'em, ride with 'em!

I like it! One nice thing about having a Harley is being able to make it "your own" it stands out from the rest, and has it's own look. Good job!
