I painted the new fenders for the '79 Special and put them on the bike. I painted the front fender mount black, and think it looks nice that way.
The silver is actually the same 'aluminum' engine paint as I used on the '75 cases.
I'm still planning on using the larger '75 tank, which will be painted black, so have the Special tank on right now. Eventually I'll likely get longer shocks and an 18" rear wheel.
Here is a 'before' picture for comparison.
Nice bike!! Did you chop the rear fender?
