Default Help /w my decision

Im getting ready to take off my swingarm and have it PCed....tossed up between a flat black and gloss black. All the plastics are gloss but wasnt sure if it would look better to go with flat to match the frame.... If the swingarm on the new 08 models is gloss im leanin towards that. If anyone has any pics of their work it might help me finally decide.

My vote is flat. I think gloss with stick out to much for a structure part. Just me though

+1 on the flat black. Just my 2 cents, but I think a glossy swingarm would be too tacky with flat black rims.

Flat black. Gloss black will be too much IMO. (and I don't think any of the swing arms in 08 are gloss, they're all flat)

Flat black no doubt.. If you really want to stick out, try glossy pink? lol[sm=bling.gif][sm=bling.gif]

I am going to go with flat due to the overwelming amount of people where I am from tring to black out their bike with flat then when they get to the SA they go gloss!!!!!!!!! It looks freaking retarded. I'll send you some pics if you want me too.
