drill out all the rivets and reshoot the cans with a new coat of paint, and the  replace rivets with alum or stainless so they won't rust.  Sell you stockers for $100 and you're set.

Strip off the paint and then polish them up to a great shine [thumbsup]
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

All opinion now, but mine is with 55Spy.  refresh that paint and be happy.  Assuming you have a black bike?

I do have a black bike and I need to fibure out how to get them apart so I can paint them. I am very happy with them. I went out and started the bike last night and just listened to it. I can't wait for the weekend to get out and ride.

Nice looking bike.  [thumbsup]

My fav color scheme.

It really accents the sweet frame the Monsters are known for.

You'll need to take a drill to the rivets to get it all apart, then you'd need to rivet it back together. 

Might be easier just to mask it off and paint them as complete pieces.

Thank you...I am quite partial to it myself.

That sounds like a plan. I'm not sure if I have the know how or skill to take something apart and put it back together well...LOL!!!

I think they look cool too!!! I'm not the type to make something so pretty you're afraid to ride it though! Some homemade mods are my fav, anyone can take it to the dealership and get some part replacement, no one else will have cans exactly like yours though!!  [thumbsup]

+1, I just masked mine off. Real easy, way better than bothering with the rivets.

I did not use rivets, I just used screws and they did work pretty good too.

are those supposed to be black widow shaped bits on the can?

if so, they could at least be red  ;)

I would definately repaint or strip and polish. Give it a nice finished look.

look like stock remus cans to me...
