Thanks guys for all the advice!

looks good man but yea you got Lightning heads. i got excited to see the HD heads haha.

id say next mod should be some rustoleum on the rear axle and such itll look really good with the rest of the black.

on the badges id say either get some 04-08 and paint them black and get some inlays or you can paint yours now black but paint the raised portions silver or grey, should look good and stand out nicely

Easiest way to do it is just mask it off and go at it. It's pretty hard to remove it cuz you have to take out the back window to get it off too
