When cleaning bike yesterday, I noticed the "beer can" or fork cover or whatever you call it had been damaged by a rock. Cost of part is $191!!!! May just powder coat a stock one black and call it good.
I think the shop Term is "Cow Bell"

Considering the fact you can buy a pair of chrome covers for about $80 MSRP, I think the fix is obvious.  The chrome parts look much better than the painted ones anyway, and they stand up to the rock chips and sand blasting better than paint as well.
