Looking at some of these in chrome with the dual cutouts. Anyone have experience with them?

I know several who have used them with no issue. I came close to buying a color matched set used, but missed out. You can see the seam where they attach, but look decent

I'm looking at doing the chrome so seam really shouldn't matter if they fit well. I'd like pics if anyone has them.

I like them, but I will eventually get full extended bags. You can see the line were they connect.

You can get a pair of CVO style bag bottoms for about $350 from Eastern. If you want the extended bag look, might as well do it right straight out of the gate and spend the money wisely :-)

Not looking to actually have extended bags. I want the chrome for the visual effect. I think it will compliment the styling of the Road King.

No cutouts but should give you an idea of how they would look. I like 'em.
