Helped a brother install the HD black, curved license plate frame this evening, why the heck does HD supply silver screws, as opposed to black ones?

Anyone have an elegant solution to blacking those screws out? Found a good substitute, painting that came out ok and matched the frame, nail polish?

Any recommendations?

Thanks!

 

Doesn't sound right that a black frame came with silver screws. First thing I would do is check with the dealer. For a quick fix, and this sounds crazy, what about an artist brush and a small jar of "testers" paint, used for models, and touch up the screw heads.

 

no need to check with the dealer, that is how they come. mine came that way, and so did another guy around here. i left mine chrome, i kinda liked the little bit of contrast......

 

Until you find some black screws, try using a Sharpie.

 

Mine came that way to

 

With the price of silver you should cash those screws in and buy either chrome or zinc screws that are spray painted. Mine came with the chrome screws. I don't recall ever seeing black screws other than ones I've painted and then when you stick a screwdriver in them they become unblack.

 

Is this really worthy of a new thread? Come on.

 

Whicho one did you all order? I am looking to replace the chrome license plate bracket and lights to flat balck as well...

 

the harley one is not flat black. it is gloss black.

 

Anyone know where i can get one to match the Denim black? after market is ok with me...
