Default Took Out Passenger pegs... Now uglly holes.

I just bought a 2016 street glide special... same day as I bought it I ordered a Le Perra solo ultra low, and took off the two up.

So today I takeoff the passenger pegs, and there are four ugly bolt holes on both side, where the pegs use to be.

Does anyone know of a plate or accessories to cover them up? or have other ideas to make it look better.

Thanks everyone

there are black plastic plugs that'll fill those holes- check the hardware section at ace hardware.

you can also get chrome plugs


suggest you get a little black paint on a qtip and paint the threads where you removed the bolts- exposed steel will rust and stain the black paint

well- any "cover" made for that area is going to look like a "cut off piece of pie plate"* and draw the eye to it.

From a previous thread:

The Harley ones are pn#90493-83 They cost me under a buck for 2 of them. They fit right in with just a push. The poster that said they were told to hammer them in was given the wrong part number for passenger peg holes.

That's what I did as well.
