I believe that's in the works. Would expect to see them in the near future.

I'm not a fan of Advanblack stuff. The bags are thin as are the stock replacement lids and other parts I've seen. The paint match is no where near as good as a lot of people claim. I just did a bike where the customer had purchased the bags and lids from Advanblack already painted (Mysterious Red Sunglow) and several other parts not yet painted, and out of the 4 parts that were painted 3 were close but different in color from each other and the bags were very wavy, especially at the bottom. No way I would have painted them the way they were. They had sent 2 right side lower speaker pods and no left. Then again I've seen very few aftermarket parts that came in perfect BadDad stuff isn't bad, Topshop is good also. I guess I'm a picky bastard when it comes to parts and paint.

I'm picky too (ask cshocker) and have had nothing but great results with Advanblack. I have their chopped tour pak, extended bags, rear fender extension and lower fairings.

I can't attest to their quality as I've never used Advanblack. I can say as far as price is concerned, it sure looks fair. I know what I paid for my VooDoo lids. They came bare, unpainted and no weatherstrip. On top of that, I paid to have my grilles and lids painted to match. That was $300.00.

They basically copied spd lids. So in a sense, those lids are NOT new.
