Lol, a bit off topic, but yea.

Thanks for the comments everyone lol, next is a Scotts or Ohlins damper, most likely in gold!
Then the ever so costly Carbon fiber ram air covers, matching triple tree cover and then the carbon gas cap protector to really make those gold bolts "POP". jajaja.
WoOT!

You can also easily remove the caliper bolts, mirror bolts, fairing bolts, etc and paint them. I cleaned all mine and painted them gloss black. If you didn't know the bike real well you couldn't tell, but it does give it a fresh look overall with the gloss.

how do you go about not scratching them when reinstalling caliper bolts?

Also, a bud of mine painted his fairing, windscreen and other bolts rattle can red, which now look kinda crappy since the paint is chipping and coming off.

Kinda why I went with anodized.

just be careful, a couple coats of paint actually survived the reinstall and torque
