Which headlight trim for my Fatboy
I am getting a trim ring for my Fatboy, can't decide which one. Two choices, one flat and the other eyebrow style. I think the eyebrow style looks good with a set of passing lamps, for a single light, the flat style may look better, what do you think?

I think you already know. And I agree with you.

I'd lean towards the visor style. I think it gives the bike a sleeker look. Kind of a forward cutting edge look.
I don't see much difference from the flat style and the rounded stock trim ring. There is a slight difference but not enough for the money to me. However, that edge may be exactly the look you want.
Post photo's after installation. Things tend to look different once on the bike.

Hey Smit, not to highjack the thread but........
what seat are you running and do you like the backrest? It's removeable I assume.

I have the Gunfighter from Corbin and yes the backrest is removable. The backrest comes off with one screw located under the seat. I have more pics if you click on my profile.
I love the backrest...it makes a world of a difference! It's take all the pressure off my lower back and upper body because I don't have to hold on with a death grip when cruising around 75mph - the backrest supports your entire body. I was planning to only use it on long rides but it makes riding so comfortable I don't think I'm going to remove it. If you ever get the chance to take a ride on a bike with the drivers backrest give it a try...you will definitely want one!
