Someone posted this awhile back looking for thoughts on the fender. It's not matte, but it's black and makes me think a matte black VLX would look good.

Not a VLX, but here is my 1100. Unfortunately had to hurry up and finish the tank project due to selling house and did a quick rattle can (4 years ago

, intent is to take it all apart some day and redo it right.

Looking Good! I will add a full black engine tho, but it looks good. I'm anxious to have my bike done, I am going to put a matte black cowl as well.
