So when I had my bike painted I was torn as to whether or not I should paint the little frame cover pieces of plastic. I wanted to because in my head I thought it would look good but ended up not doing it because I couldn't find a pic of a bike that had been painted where they painted these pieces.

Also, because the pieces have multiple surfaces I didn't know how it'd look if they were painted.

Well I saw this on craigslist last night and now it's really got me thinking, I still have plenty of paint left over and it's two bolts per side that hold these on so it would be really easy.




In the last pic you can see the edges I was worried about but I don't think it looks bad.

What do you guys think? It kind of messed up the lines a little in my opinion but I think it looks good. Painted would spray them for me for free and it'd take me about a minute to pull them both off.

Hmmmmm.
