    Soooo.....looking at my Maxim, I get tired of the black mirrors (that stick out like sore thumbs), black switch housings, black levers, black master cylinder, and black handle grips. Does anyone know where I can get chrome that will fit on a 7/8" bar? I'm already getting ProGrip 862 Touring Gel Motorcycle Grips and a chrome Cramp Buster CB2 throttle rocker, but I can't find any chrome switch housings or master cylinders. I'm looking for direct-fit with zero modifications. But here's the tricky part: I want undermount mirrors like whay you may see on recent Sportsters. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

    Lower 48 in general. Otherwise Central Mitten.
    Have you checked MikesXS for chrome switches? They will say that the switches are for only the xs, but the switches are for the 7/8 bar and will work on the xj also. some minor wiring might be necesary.

    As far as the undermount mirrors. Those would be aftermarket. Check J&P cycles, or JCWhitney.

    Im not sure about a whole chrome master cylinder but i have a chrome lid for mine that i got from partsnmore.com. It looks good, really breaks up some of the black.
