Redoing a lot of my bike, currently i have all black parts but i was thinking about putting on chrome bars and seat post with, oil slick forks and stem, then leaving the rest black. But i cant decide if that will look good
Im new to Vital BMX so if im being fucking annoying let me know!

no oilslick forks. they look terible. my friend has them. oil slick stem/sprocket seatpost would look good though
I'm on the vital legit list!

Indeed. I have yet to see one. Colony and snafu are the best bets though

yeah. to me oil slick only looks good in very small portions. try chrome forks?

I have all chrome, and if I was building a setup and have frivolous amounts of money, I would do a completely oil slick setup, just because a lot of people hate it. I got all chrome when people thought it was "ugly" or bad or whatever, because I KNEW it would be easy to spot if stolen, and it looks good. Plus chrome is more durable than standard paint when it comes to basic scratches etc.
