Default stretch tanks for softail custom

Hi, I'm new to this sight, I have a 99 fxstc i put on a new Corbin young guns seat and now i want to get stretch tanks to fill in the gap. Does anyone know of any good place to get flat side 3 in. stretch tanks of good quality that doesnt need a gallon of bondo to make them nice! any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
