Default HD Engine Guard on an FXDF

We all know the pros and cons of engine guards and have our own opinions. Today I finally broke down and got one. The reason I am posting this is so everyone can see what the Fat Bob looks like with it on. There are very few, if any pics floating around the internet of this bike with an EG (the Harley website doesn't even have one!). I think it looks pretty good, and the black does a nice job of not making it stick out too much.

They look good in black. Maybe I'll get mine powder coated.

Question

Looking for a black engine guard for my 2010... I actually like that look but only in black to go with the denim black color - where did you find them?

Looks good. Is that a HD guard? I got the black Lindby guard on mine.

Doesn't look bad at all

I always think that a bike with guards looks better with bags to keep the lines even all the way back......just me though cause I like a nice set of bags anyway.

I am not a huge fan of it, but I have one on my scoot. I even like it better when I dropped her and there was no damage/scratches. Grant it, it was one of those where I was able to hold on to her as she was dropping, to slow the fall.

I cant get past that straight on view, good if u like it, but i would have to pass. my heavy breather saves the bike from any major damage on a right side slide.
