Default Agitators on Black Pearl SG

Anyone put a set of agitators on a Black Pearl bike? I was getting ready to order a set and can not decide if I should get the contrast ones or the all chrome. I feel like anything black against the black pearl looks a little weird but the stock wheels are mostly black and I have never had any issues with the way they look. There is a price difference between the two of about $300 which I am not too concerned about. Anyone have any photos of either ones on a black pearl bike? Any input is appreciated. I know its all a matter of personal preference but figured why not ask for opinions.

chrome works best on dark color bikes

My bike is called Dark Slate (it's a dark grey) and came with the chrome.
I think the chrome looks better (pops more)
I think the chrome is easier to clean (just wipes right down)

Did your bike come with the all chrome agitators? I thought all the CVO's came with the contrast wheels.

The 2011 CVO Street Glide came contrast as well as the 2012 CVO Road Glide.
That's one of the reasons I never traded for a 2011. I personally did not want contrast.
Mine did come all chrome.

I think you should check out the Black Ice Agitators. They would look badass on Black Pearl.

Dealer had one on display, we took it out on the lot at set it next to my bike. I honestly was not a fan of how they looks against the black pearl. I am 90% sure I am going to go with the all chrome, I feel like it would look best on my bike. Still would like to see someone with picture of the contrast chrome wheels on a black pearl bike.
