Tiger, I think your bike would look sweet with the HD black flush kit.

Love the way they look, but ive had one of the LED's go out and the actual gas cap come apart on me.. A riding buddy of mine has had two sets and an LED went out on both sets... But they do look awesome!

here are some pics of the gloss black flush mounts. i have not had any problems with mine and they were a quick install. just remember the locations of the wires you're going to pull from the plug.
