Brackets

[angus]

Anybody know where I could get headlight brackets if not mine were painted black what would be best way of stripping paint and try polishing them.Conan

They are chrome under that black paint. Chances are that when they were painted, it was because the chrome wasn't in great shape. Rough chrome can't be brought back without expensive re-chroming. You could try e-bay for some better ones. I powder-coated mine in black along with the headlight bucket, and they look great.

Cheers how would I remove the paint.Wire wheel on drill or paint strippers so I can judge how bad the chrome is .Conan

Either paint stripper or a heat gun. A wire wheel or any other abrasive may damage/scratch any good chrome you have.

Have brackets repainted looking OK there should be rubber cushion in the brackets where indicator goes anybody know a part number I've tried babbits online,csmnl and bike bandit and can't find them it listed.
