Yes, same as the photo. It's metal, painted the same HD wrinkle black paint as the primary cover (though on the stock low rider that's chrome) and/or other parts.

No close ups, but you can see it here. Along with the plastic primary cover and bottom end of the motor lol.

Good question...and one I would have asked

I think 2005-2009 was chrome, 2010+ is plastic crap...it's really the only thing I don't like about my bike.
Ok...really...plastic?

You have a bike in your possession that has a console you're calling plastic...right?

I bought a chrome version of the tank trim for my 2004 Lowrider. I still have the black metal one. It's at a rummage sale this weekend.
