Question fairing trim from HD

Has anyone put these on their fairing gauges? Is the quality good and how is it holding up in the elements? thinking about getting them.

I put 'em on mine, and I like 'em. Easy to install. They've been on for about 10 months now and no problems whatsoever.

If you are talking about the chrome rings that you can add to your gauges and have replaced the air temp gauge with the HD version oil pressure gauge, you may find it doesn't fit on that one. Also if you look closely, the oil pressure stock ring is not as bright as the others. Slightly but you can see it if you look.

Have mine and I had my doubts because they are just held on with double face tape but they have been on for two years and were removed once when I color matched the fairings. They look like the day I bought them and have had no issues. Look great and not to expensive.

Had them on my 03 Ultra for 3 years then sold bike no problems. They go on with some double sided fragile tape type stuff. When installing, I screwed up some of the tape so I used a little clear 100% silicone on it instead and it worked just as good.
