Default Suggestions for a cool looking Sissy Bar?

Shopping around for a nice looking sissy bar for my modified Iron pic included. I am trying to match comfort, coolness and a nice look to combine but I don't know if that could be made possible. My girl likes to ride on my Iron as she does on my touring bike, however, I don't have the comforts of a touring bike on an Iron as I do on a Street Glide. I don't want to take away from the look of the Iron, but I came across this Sissy bar on ebay and I wanted to see what you guys think about it? Maybe some of you could offer another suggestion or idea...

The standard Sissy bar from Harley looks fugly, big *** pillow, etc me no likes. The bike is pictured w the standard solo seat and not the bad lander seat that I use when I'm riding with my girl.. Or atleast I think its the badlander seat with the attached pass seat on it.. Its from Harley I know that for sure...

I just put that one on my '09 Custom. Looks awesome! Not too tall, just right. It would probably look even better on an Iron with all the black.

Last week I installed the HD quick disconnect Sissy Bar. I'm pretty happy with it. Looks nice on my Iron too.

I'm running the hd quick detach one-piece, I think it looks pretty good though I'd like it to have been a bit taller. I bolted a leather bag on the back of it and have room to carry six beers with me now.. previously I had to sacrifice tool space in my swing arm bag to pack a few beers.

I have the HD quick disconnect bar with a pad from a 1981 Suzuki GS550.

Here my Iron with the HD Sissy Bar. I could go for it to be higher as well. But I like the quick on and off it provides. I never two up so its more for bag that use for work.
