Default Looking for Black hand controls

I have ordered and am waiting on the Bagger Nation Monkey Bars (Black) for my 2008 Electra Glide Standard.

I want to put black hand controls on it as well. My question is two fold;

1) I have looked on ebay and some other part sites (drag specialties and such) but I just want a set of black hand controls, not flamed or skulled or anything like that. Does anyone have any suggestions for where to look to compare the most products. HD is always a little pricey for me. I know I can find what I want, I just need a little push getting there.

2) Does anyone have any pics of the black on black idea. I have seen the bars on a bagger and I loved them. But both I have seen in person still had the chrome hand controls.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I went with the standard HD black controls and am happy. I have the PYO Monkeybars on my RG

Beemervert....


If I can find someone to do it reasonably I will paint it. That was the plan originally but I am mechanically incapable of doing it myself and the stealer quoted $600 for paint plus 4 hours labor OR new HD part for nearly $1K plus 4 hours at $80 bucks. Apparently Sunglow paint is more time consumint etc. I hope to get it done someday as I think it would significantly change the look for the better but not for $1000 bucks!

I hear about $100-$150 to paint an inner and I can only imagine that the sunglow can't be that much more difficult. $400 or so removed and reinstalled and I would be all over that.

Any NH painters out there??
