Default Deluxe solo seat - rear fender bolts

Greetings. I'm removing the passanger seat from my 07 Deluxe and I would like to know what you are doing to take care of the bolt holes that are left visable on the rear fender. Where can I get something to cover it or get some better looking replacement bolts?
Thanks for any suggestions.

How about a fender bib? Many threads about this subject. In fact, one of the members here makes a real nifty one along with a matching tank panel.

I all so took my deluxe seat off. Went to Harley and picked up two "Christmas tree" push in hole fillers. The wee black clips where your centre stand would bolt to. Trimmed the 4sides down a bit but kept the full round top the turned them into the holes where the bolts where (like a nut) before getting to the bottom taped up the bike and painted the by hand with touch up paint and lacquer then when dry put the all the way in. They look great and not outta place one bit.

I'll post photos shortly

I like my Motherwell rack a lot! Doesn't hide the paint like a bib does and has come in handy a time or two! I added a couple of smaller chrome nuts from Mustang to it.

Harley makes little removable plug for that hole. It came with my bike. I put it in and take it off when I put my passenger pillion on. It even has a little bar and shield on it.

I bought these for my Sporty and my Deluxe and really like how they look, plus they're sturdy.
