Very well done. Black is balanced with chrome nicely.
A collision with a deer last year is what set me on my path of redoing my Street Glide. Should be done in a week or so. Kinda funny how sometimes a sh*ty thing happens and gets turned around to being a plus

It's not the camera that is making the color look different, it is the light source the painted part is under that does. It is called metamerism.
The quality of some colors that causes them to appear differently under different light sources. For example, two color samples might appear the same in natural light, but not in artificial light.
