The cover looks great is that chromed or all paint thinking of outlining the letters or painting them completely to show up better also thinking od taking the cross brace and chromeing it and powder coating the bracket with SS bolts Mine is Silver metallic powder coat would be satin black

Thanks for the compliments. I had the entire cover painted. The fuel rails in Red Jewel and the rest in a matte black.Then I bought the stainless steel overlays. Here are the links:
