No More Silver Trim on 2018 F3T

[YIRYDE]

I never really like the silver trim and wheels on my F3T. I think it looks a lot better after a few mods.


Day of purchase at the dealer

Thanks for pointing this out, I was using the edit feature on my Iphone and it allows you to reverse the picture. I wanted to have all the photo's with the F3 pointing in the same direction but didn't realize the exhaust would be on the wrong side. I have changed the first picture to the original image.

True dat - but look closely, it's NOT actually a Spyder!! nojoke It's a REDYPS, says so on the Pannier; and according to the label on the silver fog light trim, it looks to be made by MA-NAC too!! :shocked:

Maybe it's a ESENIHC clone of a Spyder! If it is, they'll probably be good competition for the cheap Chinese stuff..... hyea: :roflblack:



But I must say I do like your version of a 'Black' Spyder F3-T YIRYDE, sets off the Intense Red really well! :2thumbs:

They are the Short Reach Handlebars.

I normally like the silver/chrome but that black is a great contrast to the red.

Thanks! Once I get back to Ohio from SC I will order a set. I can get the tires mounted up there for free!

What product did you do to black out the grey bits? I used plasti-dip but I find I have to constantly touch them up (as it is easily removed and can be peeled off), but thinking of a permanent change and really love the look of your glossy black. If you could take a picture of the can if you still have?

I thought about painting or using plasti-dip but decided to order the items in black from my dealer.

Do you have the part numbers for the black pieces?
