Thanks for the compliments guys. The S&S really does look like it belongs on the bike. You do have to get the teardrop cover powder coated though. They only sell it in chrome and a wrinkle black finish.

Jam- I already got the LEDs installed, I just popped the seat off found the wires running back to the tails and installed in there. Thanks for the reply though. And they are incredibly bright! Goes great with the daymaker headlight.

on my blacked-out slim I left the headlight trim-ring and got the V&H straight shots in black.... a little shiny in front, and a little at the exhaust tip

I was thinking the same thing. Someone gave me the HD stock cover in chrome. I haven't tried it on yet. Weird bolt.

Also ran an S&S on mine, you're right, it just belongs.
