My blue 2015 GTS went this path. Hope you can find some nice black mirrors.

Then black bar end weights, brake levers and speedo surround. It will look great with that colour.

Great work. I did all that to my blue GTS, except for the mirrors. I presume you fitted bar end mirrors?

Now we need some pictures of the whole scooter, from different angles.

The engine cover badges will get removed and I have some stuff that I'll spray paint black.
Wheels and suspension up next

Two tone wheels - spokes in verde relax and rim in gloss black? That would be lovely.

I might suggest Plastidip for quick 'paint' jobs. It is quick and easy and can be removed if you want to for some reason. The mirrors and levers were aftermarket black but you can see some Plastidip on the horn cover and fender medallion.

You could plastidip those reflectors.
