Have any of you guys installed the "fillers" for the space between the bike & the hardbags?
They are in the "Wish book" (catalog). Only thing is they don't come in my color (Mirage orange pearl) so I would have to go with black or chrome. Input welcome.

They don't fit on a Road Glide without doing some cutting on them. Took them back since I figured that for the price they wanted for them they should fit without mod's.
PS..The catelog says they won't fit a Road Glide but I didn't believe them[:@].....
The hd ones don't fill the gaps in very well. I have some "Hotop" brand fillers that actually fit right. They are in the Drag Specialties catalog. Unpainted are approx $50. You can see them in my photo gallery.
What was the difficulties in fitting? I was told that if I relocate my antenna, it would fit fine. I have already relocated the antenna, due to detachable tour-pak. Any thoughts?

No problem fitting on my Roadglide, take a look http://www.whatcomharleys.com/bluesite/index.html
I also think they help in keeping the back of the bike from getting so crudded up when riding on wet roads.

You could paint them. These guys have spray cans that match H-D pearl colors. http://www.cyclecolor.com/
I repainted the bottom half of one of my black pearl hard bags and you can't tell where the factory paint ends and my paint starts. And I'm not a paint or body guy so it doesn't take any special talent or skill. Just follow the directions.
