Default Advanblack quality?

Overall what’s the opinion of Advanblack products? Color match ? Latches and materials and the like ? I’m thinking of bags and a chopped tour pad all in Vivid Black. What say you ?

thanks

I've had several of their products in the past and currently have a set of their Rushmore style lower fairings. Paint match was excellent and the quality is very good. A much better price that Harley demands

The products that I have used are fair/good, but customer service is nonexistent. I bought a set of their speaker bag lids and parts were missing. I ended up fabricating what I needed because they wouldn't answer the phone or return voice mails. Roll the dice or look elsewhere.

I have bought several of the item and price and quality are good. I would not buy the speaker lids they are just too flimsy.

I had their stretched bags on my 2016 Ultra Limited, the quality was good. Still on the bike with about 35k on them. No cracks.

in vivid black, i would skip advanblack and go straight to amazon. you can find the same thing there for a whole lot cheaper.

i bought amazon (tcmt brand) lowers for my bike. $105. i bought advanblack lowers for the wife's bike in industrial grey denim. $500. after comparing them, they were the exact same thing. basically, i paid extra for the paint job. industrial grey denim is not available on amazon.

these are my lowers that i bought over 5 years ago. i know you didn't ask about lowers, but i would bet the tourpacks are the same also. in checking ab website, the chopped tourpack for 2014 and newer is $704. that includes the backrest pad. the amazon version is $259. including backrest pad, and mounting rack. regardless of which way you go, i would suggest junking the hardware that comes on them and replacing with good, high quality hardware.
