yes, they are anodized aluminum bolts the kit for the cbr caps fit the vfr.. or you can just paint yours. :fing02:

I painted mine red a while back. Just have to be careful installing so you don't ruin the paint! Go a size smaller with some plastic between the bit and the bolt tends to work.
Cap is painted black, bolts red.
I suck at painting, otherwise it may have turned out nicer and I might have kept a pic of it! :blush:

painting is my last option...i am looking for the anodized look...to match the levers and bar ends

Yeah, send yours out or buy a spare set from ebay or similar and send them out. Look through the yellow pages in your area, probably some shop that does powder coating or anodizing that would do them. Cost shouldn't be too bad and you could get them done the way you want.
