What do most people do about the bolts and spacers when powder coating rearsets? I assume most people go ahead and powder coat the spacers but not sure how visible they are. But what about the Bolts? They have those big ugly brass round heads what to do about those? I'm also doing the brake and shifter to match any issues with the brass  Huh?  fitting inside that it rotates on?

Perhaps fastenall or mcmaster-carr has a black anodized option for you.

I could see doing a rattle can job on the spacers but the bolts will probably chip when I tighten them. I guess I could just use a little touch up paint on the hex socket on the bolt if it chips.

Clean in solvent then blast over with some bbq paint - if they mess up waft over with solvent 12 months down the line and repeat = simples!
