Well, the night started out great

Great idea, Fred.

Looks like the entire recovery from your and Melissa's Bambiboozling is going well.

I gave you your only "thumbs up" on that Facebook video, but it was as much for the music playing in the background as for your directorial effort.

Sounded like Pat Metheney's guitar to these old ears???
 
Thought about powder coating the bars - then install the LED’s? As this would offer rust protection on the scuffed areas
 
I was thinking the same thing, Mittzy.

Another idea would be to take them to your local Rhino Linings guy for a dip!
 

Fred,
Were you a PIMP in a former life???
 
I'm waiting to get my rear crash bars from a fellow member. Then I can mount my bags. Then it's just putting the new tins on. I'm doing that last so I don't bang um' up !

Did you ever get the chrome swing arm covers?
 
Have you checked on getting them chemically stripped, polish the scuffs and rechromed?

The EPA pretty much ran all the chrome places around me out of business. Chroming is $$$. If I don't like the lights, there is a company that makes a scuff guard that is made to cover up previous damage.
