I like the dull look too. But it's a style thing and doesn't work on all bikes. Every time I park my Gran Sport in the sun I think Wow, chrome is the ticket. It wouldn't mix with the dull look.

Khatfull, that's a beautiful Fuji. But how long will that RD stay so pretty when the bike is ridden? (And you should stop polishing the brake cables too. They're kinda' thin, I believe.)
