Another vote to paint to match. Makes the bike look 100% better than the stock dull dash.

I have a riding buddy who added a batwing to his RK. His ride is Burgundy and Cream. He decided to paint the inner fairing Cream. After the paint work and installation was complete, all of a sudden it didn't look so good.

It appears you are doing your homework and rightly so, he would say, it's a lot of work and money when one has to retrace his steps.

Just my thought!

I saw a post a while back that did a graphite paint job that looked awsome. I think if you search in this forum you may find it.
