You asked for an opinion. A bit much for me, even on a silver bike. But then, that's just me. If you like them, by all means have them.

That being said, growing up in the '60s, I love chrome goodies, and don't mind the extra polishing time for the "Wow" factor.
Also "chrome" plastic always struck me as a bit cheezy.
Not sure of your model, but if you have a flat black Storm, it seems that any chrome would be out of place.

| | Posted : 28 Feb 2015 - 19:54 Post title : Re: Chrome Side panels (Re: VABird) | | | no its the clear black so looks shiny, here is a pick of another bike i found with the front chrome grill, i think it looks different and pops the front end. I also have the front and rear crash bars, as well as the QR large screen with chrome trim and a chrome luggage rack, chrome caliper covers and a mustang seat. i am thinking it will look nice, different but still nice?????? so picture this set up only with the chrome side covers????
If this is your bike hope its ok to post a pic of it, was out on the net :-)

Next tire change, I'll have mine powder coated.
Can't find any more chrome shops around here.
