I painted my heal guards with Krylon Red Metallic paint.

All together Thanks BuellXB!!!
My Favorite Part, the muffler Mod. I did it very similar to Urban_Assault's but i just mad my own end cap i welded the tips to. It has all stainless packing and sounds and performs GREAT!

I love the heel guards. I want to find out what the durability is and how like that paint lasts versus going the anodizing route.
 
I dont think the paint is going to last very long the anodizing will be levels better. Im prolly gonna have to pop em off and go with that.
 
Dont hit a bump, cause see you number plate now, hit and bump and its toast bro!

Looks good 2nastyn8! We got the same location for breather filter. I routed my drain hose (hehe I said drain hose) behind the footpeg bracket for a cleaner look. Ride safe!
 
How do you think the paint would hold up with a couple coats of clear paint? I think it looks really sharp and I like the painted heel guards. I too am on the fence to paint or anodize. Lookin good! ;)
 
ya that plate is weird. My first ride was only six blocks 2 a buddy's house, no major bumps, no marks of any kind on the plate and it was bent forward. i was wondering what did it. thanks 7mary3 ive been meaning to clean that hose up. also the paint has tiny chips in it already. Go with anodizing! lawdog
 
It probably just needs a steeper angle on it. Increase the angle in the bracket so its not so perpendicular to the ground and that should do it.
