Default dash - tank trim

when i got my 98 superglide the tank trim panel was all messed up, faded and chipped etc. i went to the dealer for a take off but they gave me an old lowrider dash... its too long and leaves a little gap at my tank. not to mention its faded too. wish i had known better a the time, opbviously the part guy didn't.
harely only offer this piecelinkylink. im not too wild about chorme. some places its fine, but for the dash, i think i would rather have the stock black. i think the glare would suck. anyway, what can i do. can the stock part be found? its not ont he website. anyone else replacd this trim piece?

thanks all

98

You should be able to remove and refinish it if you want, I agree chrome there is not good, had the same problem and installed the dashinator on a WG and it took care of it. Maybe a textured (wrinkle) finish in flat black from a rattle can would do it?

98,

Dashinators are a HD item, and are in the HD catalog. They are available for the FXDWG, but not the FXD.

The parts department at your local dealership should be able to order you a replacement. It will be in the parts book, not the catalog.

If you have problems, let me know, and I'll find a part number for you with my local dealer. The main parts guy and I have a good working relationship.

Regards,

BIll

Maybe you could search for one on eBay, there might be someone who is selling theirs after putting a chrome one on their bike.
