Default Black Rineharts on a Road King anyone ?

I need some pics or some opinions please. I have a 2004 RK Custom, real red. I've been thinking of ordering the Rines true duals in black with crome tips to be different than the usual crome/black tips. I think the bright red would look good with a little more black than just the seat and bags. So I went ahead and ordered them today, but I'm having second thoughts since I've never seen any RKs up close(besides small pics) with the full black pipes.
Problem is the exchange will cost me 20% restock fee, even though I called 1 hour later to switch thats a whole different story for another thread. So I'm pretty sure I'll stick to the black.

I would really like to see pics of Road Kings, Customs, Classics, any, with black Rineharts if anyone has them. Would like some opinions too, thanks.
I'm going to look for a pic of my scooter to post up.

Heres a pic of the bike the day I bought it, the only difference now is that I use the stock seat.
It looks a little orangie cause its a phone pic, but it is real red.
The other pic I found on the Internet, it resembles more of what it looks like now.

So what do you guys think ? Should I pay the restock and go with the chrome or is this thing going to look good with the blacks ? Pics anyone ?

Nothing wrong with being different. Make sure you post pics after you get them on....you never know, you might start a trend.

I think the trend may have started already. I just need to see some pics to clear up my thoughts a little. What the heck I already ordered, just tryin to decide if I should pay return stock fee or just go black. (that sounded a lil wrong)
And for some odd reason, the chrome is 50$ cheaper, maybe I'm missing something...
I did search but only found the black slip ons with chrome header.
Thanks. I will post results when I get it back.

See the blog below. I have a few close ups of the chrome version. Black would be different, and if they work with the theme of the bike, then it would be a good choice.

I think the black pipes will look good.

Digger, check out Youtube. Search for "Road King Custom Rinehart". The black slip-ons are on a black RK custom, but you'll get the idea. I've been going back and forth on these myself. Love the chrome tips and badge.

I say "go for it!" I think a red bike with black accents anywhere looks great. I am going to black Rinehart true duals next week (just waiting for delivery) for my bike. Post pics soon!

We sell a ton of Rhinehardt tru duals, I even have them on my Ultra. The pipe I really like for sound, but don't think they come in black, is the Bassani tru duals. Awesome sounding pipe.
