OK powdercoater is charging 7.50 per bracket, so a total of $42.50 powder coated semi gloss black plus $5.00 shipping in the west and $7.50 in the east, based on the Mississippi. Should have the first batch back by the end of the week.

I used the piece that Spud is talking about. I had it on my 07, that bike was lowered an inch front and rear and the plate never scraped. And it had plenty of chances, lol.
The only changes I made to the plate was I drilled a hole in the tab that fits into the muffler hanger as well as the muffler hanger itself. I shimmed the small gap between the two pieces and ran a bolt through it. That baby wasn't going anywhere! Also, once it was mounted, I bent the plate mount up just a bit so it followed the contour of the saddle bag. As far as it being illuminated....I always figured if the po po was behind me with his headlights on then, by default, the plate was illuminated.......although I probably woulda had that argument analy inserted in a court of law, lol.
It was a nice piece and worked very well.
