[QUOTE=offthewall;13291277]Now that looks decent but I still prefer the black. The chrome, not at all.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't there a post on here somewhere that showed this piece with a chrome mesh that goes behind the louvers? The inside is chrome while outside is black.
I swear I saw this somewhere.

Better yet, use S100 carnauba wax. It doesn't leave any residue on rubber or plastic. Great stuff.

Now THAT looks good Chip.
I'll do mine over the winter.
Daytona Blue Pearl ain't cheap either
The HD Color Matched Saddle Bag fillers looks nice, I think.

I think this looks the best so far!!!! Did you do a write up on the project by chance?

I really haven't done any write ups... I have had a few guys PM me asking how I did it... Made a template with cardboard... Rain Gutter cover from Home Depot and some rattle can paint. Couple of drops of silicone on the corners to hold it in place while I put the Faring back on.
