Is there a way to black out your forks?

My Spokes were very rusty on my front wheel. i sanded them down asbest as possible, taped off the outer lip of the wheel, sprayed spokes down with black rust stopped, then put a few goats of gloss black on then clear coat. it actually didnt come out all to bad for a cheap paint job. an so far they have held up well, have put about 1000 miles on since then. the bike was very rusty and scratched when i got it. plan is do do the whole bike the right way this summer

with black paint

I painted the forks on my 400f with the appliance epoxy paint. Wire brushed them with a brass wheel in my drill and cleaned them first. They came out pretty good and smooth surface.

Its because they are the mirrors, not just cosmetic bar ends.

not sure what color yet. i just meant to actualy have the bike done wth a good paint job.

Are you planning to do this to your Harley or Kaw?

How about "Color Chrome?" This site has some pretty examples -

Has anyone had this type of work done?
