Thanks for all the reply's. Not looking to chrome the lowers or powder coat them. Still experimenting with different coatings that will blend in with the rest of the lower leg, but have yet to come up with anything that works. Still looking for input from anyone who knows what will work. The reflectors are not going back on. There is enough lighting on my bike to be seen from every angle at night BUT... if someone knows of a WHITE reflector with the same shape as the stock yellow ones, I would be interested in those.

Well... if it is I'm screwed. Not going to spend that kind of money. Guess I'd just have to re-install the reflectors. I know Kuryakyn sells those lower leg accent covers because I had them on my 09 Road King. But after checking their site, they don't make them for the 14's and above... yet. Those would cover up the area.

I think I found the fix (albeit a cover-up). I ordered these white saddlebag reflectors off Ebay. They're smaller than the stock amber reflectors I removed from the lower fork legs but I think they will cover up the blemish just fine. Since I'm going all white/clear on the front end with the lights, these should work nicely.
