Default Black Headlight Trim Ring

Hello, I just got a trim ring for my Street Glide. I think it would look better black and I will powdercoat if I have to. Does anyone aftermarket or Harley make a gloss black ring? Thanks

Here is what I got.

a company called eastwood make neat kits for powdercoating, cadmium plating and parkerizing small parts at home.

maybe worth a look to you if you are going to be doing a bunch of parts

I originally purchased that ring also. It was an ill-fitting piece that after a lot of adjusting and general putzing with, I decided to return. Good luck with yours and let us know what you ended up doing.
