I'm thinking about buying some silver hard bags and then having them painted to match my bike. Just wondering if anyone else has tried this and how it turned out?

It will be like every other painted surface. I would suggest you have an experienced painter/bodyman do the work though. They will scuff up the existing paint with 600 paper, remove rubber or trim work, and use an automotive paint with a high end gun. The paint can be either BaseCoat/ClearCoat or a single stage Urethane. This will give you a finish that will match your bike paint extremely well. Trying to do it with a spray can is out of the question.
