Do you have any pics.....

I am currently doing research for mini apes and not exactly sure if I want chrome or black. I have a 2012 denim black street glide and not exactly sure what the contrast would look like with vivid black bars. I want to keep all the controls black, change the grips with the diamond black collection, and the levers will black also. I was wondering if you had any pics of any of this. Long shot I guess.

thanks
Jim

The second picture is from before I relocated the mirrors down 1" to keep some functionality.

Thank you guys. Thats perfect. I think my mind is made. Cpt America, what size bars are those? They do render the mirrors quite useless. Glad that you were able to lower them an inch. Did that make a huge difference?

I had a denim Fatboy Lo with gloss black vintage apes (sig pic) and never liked the contrast but it did match the front end which was all vivid. If I could do it all over again I'd powdercoat them.
