Bare Metal or Gloss Black?
Got the new-to-me mini apes sanded down for paint this morning. Now that I see them bare, I can't decide which I like better the bare metal or gloss black. Vote and let me know what you guys think.

Seeing an image of your bike and what you're going for would help, but based on the bars themselves.... Black! It goes with everything

I agree with tincup, it all depends on what bike they are going on.

After thinking about it I am leaning towards the gloss black as it would look better with my bike. I kinda like the bare metal look but it would't really match up correctly or may look odd. I will mock them up and take more pictures soon. Here are the pictures of my bike.

Either one would look good on that bike, but I'd paint them so that rust wasn't a constant concern.
