Those covers look pretty sweet.You might find yourself facing some cracking issues in the future though. One of the reasons that those covers don't come painted from the factory is becauseregular paintcan crack when the plastic flexes.Some placeswould say to put a flex additive into the paint before you spray it to make the paint a little less brittle. As long as you try not to bend/ flex them when you'retaking them off and putting them on, you should be ok though.just my 2 cents

I was thinking about the idea of painting them (sort of), but I think you just sold me on leaving them the way they are.....plus it'll save me time & money...lol
But the bike looks good Draconius!!
