Hi Jack, I swear that if I'd gone through all this hassle and frustration I'd have decided to cut my losses and have knobs turned up from 6061T6 aluminum bar stock. Then sought out a "Bro with computer mill" to have the triple tuning fork logo cut into them.
Geez first of all they look great as is. More importantly this is a great project that a fellow member worked his ass off on. I think your being unfair both to the original idea, (mine) and to Steve. It's not like the bike won't run, or handle well with these units. It's just that when you buy products online you never know the quality until you open the package. I like mine,and I'm happy as hell with it. I still have another back up plan to make this work, but even if it doesn't come out mirror like I'll still appreciate Steve's work and skill.

Don't clear coat the emblems!
Soon, you'll be able to answer the greatest mystery:
"How long does it take to polish off an 8 pound brisket?"
Two 3D tuning fork emblems arrived today, in 30mm and 40mm.
Difficult to photo, reflective innards. They're flexy, have a rubbery feel.
This'll take some contemplating and planning.
Thinking of going with that 'brushed' finish, coated in clear.

..logo and surrounding ring are chrome on a black ground where yours look to have a white logo and black surround..
..I reckon that mine and yours are close enough to give a meaningful long term report.
Peel'n'stick onto new clearcoat, not clearcoated after installation, still stuck on as strong as ever and still look like new.
