I don't want to ship them or hand them over to get it done professionally. All I want is to basically make them black cuz I hate the silver that stands out.

Any tips on how to do it? Any sanding? What type of spray paint? etc etc.

 

I would think a real LIGHT sanding, using VERY fine grit sandpaper and watch it if you get any that has metal particals in it,if you do make sure its aluminum particles as I believe that is what the pegs are made of, and the I would spray them with a good primer and then use paint that is good for aluminum (I believe Rust-O-Leium (sp?)) makes some for aluminum patio furniture. If you really want to get fancy, Sears sells a "powder coating spraygun and has the different color paints.Hope this helps and this isJMO.

 

i sprayed mine with heat resistant spray paint it takes no prep and dries in less than 5 minutes. looks pretty miller too. ill post a picture in a sec

 

I want to do this to. I want everything black and red on mine. I want to do my passenger pegs and my rearsets. If you do yours, let me know what paint you used.

 

 

that looks pretty decent. The black isn't as solid/dark as the rest, but it's better than the silver color. Did you use just heat resistant spray? No sanding or prepping at all?

 

its a little lighter than the frame , my flash is super bright.

yeah just heat resistant spray paint i cant remember the brand right now ill check tomorrow.
i just took the peg apart and sprayed it down with one coat let it dry (it dries to the touch in less than 5 minutes) and then i continued and put 3 more coats on and put em back together and bolted em up.
it looks really nice cant even tell i painted em, some people think thats how they came ha

 

it will chip if you use them...best bet is to go www.TRGcoating.com they are a sponsor on the site and have had numerous good things said about them, and it will look hella better than barbecue grille paint
