Met with the painter and will be sending the brackets off to get them chromed. Have a couple hundred miles on the fairing and LOVE IT!

Color match for sure if the painter can match it.

Looks great, paint match was the way to go!

How does it do blocking the wind compared to the wind splitter that came with the bike?
