Default Black vs Chrome

Need some help. So I put my chrome heat shield back on but my Father (old school biker) thinks it looks like ****. I think it looks bad a$$. What do you guys think?

I think the blacked out look has it's place and that's on a bike that is blacked out. If you pick that theme then awesome!

Otherwise chrome is king or a nice balanced mix which is tricky to make work.

Imop!

I think you answered your own question. Who cares what others think, if you like it, keep it! It's your ride!

The chrome tips help tie in the chrome shields. Without them I would vote black. With the chrome tips, I vote for the chrome shields.

Thanks guys. Looks like a mix of opinions, I like the chrome. I do realize that it's my bike and that's all should matter but at the same time I respect the opinions of other as well. I am going to keep the chrome. I guess my Dad can talk his crap when I am passing his Shovel Head on the left. Lol
