For you guys running the 10" struts, have any of you considered painting or powdercoating the mounting hardware so the struts blend in more with the frame for less of a "bolt-on look", at least from a distance?

Love it! The ol lady wants to get a sportster and keep her Triumph. She digs the way your bike looks......she may be sold!

She saw your wiring harness on the ground...."why do you all have to tear up everything!"
