    Sidecover Opinions

    I am in the process of making new sidecovers for the bike...the first ones I made I used last year were from just flat aluminum with the GS750 emblem on them..but since my motor has diamond plate covers I made on it I decided to make diamond plate ones for the bike itself...just cant decide on flat black or gloss with the highlighted diamonds...opinions?

          With the rest of the bodywork being gloss black, I would go with gloss black on the side covers.

          Are you engine covers gloss black or flat? It doesn't matter as much if the engine covers are different, but I would keep the body pieces all in the same theme. The polished diamonds would be their highlight.
