Overall Assessment

Customers emphasize the superior quality of our product's chrome finish. They appreciate its practicality, usability, and excellent value. However, the absence of chrome batwings is a consistent point of critique, leading some customers to purchase them separately. Despite this shortcoming, the overall material quality and finish appear to outshine competition, making customers willing to buy again. The need to re-cut chrome nuts and bolts was also mentioned for improved performance. According to reviews, our product delivers remarkable aesthetics and functionality, though with room for enhancements.

Excellent kit, and fast shipping. just wish the batwings would have been chromed. ended up buying a chrome set from another company, so the front end would be a complete chrome front end.

Show quality chrome finish!

Was amazed at the quality of the chrome plating on all of the parts in this kit! The only drawback to these chrome kits are that the batwings are NOT chrome plated in their chrome kits. Knowing this before I ordered the kit, I purchased chrome batwings from Pete & Jakes, something Speedway should consider purchasing for their chrome kits to be completely chrome for their customers.

A CHROME front end & NO chrome batwings. Very BAD

A chrome front end assembly but NO Chrome batwings. You should be ashamed to advertise and sell the item like that.

Great product. Right price. Super chrome. Just be sure to re-cut the chrome nuts and bolts. Anti-seize alone won't stop a seize.
