Thanks guys, I went with my Ol man to get him a new trike, and this was sitting there with the front wheel already on it and I just had to have it. Came home sold my boat, and my Springer softail an went back the next day to get it. Its amazing how fast you can get rid of something when your motivated. Now I have been selling off my guns to buy accesories. ha

I wrapped a paint can tool in masking tape to get mine started, then worked on the double sided tape with a plastic putty knife. Removed remaining adhesive with citrus cleaner and a wooden paint stir stick. Kind of a PIA with the exhaust in place but sure does make a difference...and it's free!
I had wondered about that. Thanks for the tip. I love free chrome!

I havent decicded yet honestly. I am going to the Wildcat Harley Birthday Bash the 6, 7, 8 of July and there airbrush guy is gonna be there. Im thinking I want some kind of white pinstripeing on the bike so if I do that, i may paint the inner fairng BBP with some kind of design in it with the white pinstripe. Wildcat Harley has a 2012 TriGlide that has been completly custom painted. Its Black and white with white and red pinstriping. Then they painted the fairing gloss black wiith the white and red pinstriping. It looks really good.
