Might be worth it if they can offer it in more of the HD OEM colors....Dark Blue Peral would be nice but I am sure that would be tough to achive.

Saw them at the dealer show. Very high quality. I did want one until I heard the price and not having a fairing cap to match was not my thing

SoftDash is made using TPO, not Naughahyde (Vinyl). It is also used in Marine applications and even roofing materials. 3M weather tested them for us during development. SoftDash carries a 10 year warranty. Both layers, the foam and top-coat are solid TPO.

Thanks for noticing the high quality. We spent a lot of time and effort creating it. They do and always have come with a matching fairing-cap (FLH) and matching or contrasting glove box lids (Road Glide). Pricing was competitively matched to a new H-D painted set (we were $100.00 less than H-D on Road Glides). SoftDash is currently 30% off during the 'Black Friday Sale'.

This is more difficult that you can imagine. For Road Glide alone from 2007-2008 there are 12 colors. To color match a blue for example, we'd have to custom blend a color ($2,500.00 just for the blend) then a minimum product quantity in feet ($10,000.00). For the 12 Road Glide colors that's $150,000.00. We'd have to sell a lot of inner-fairings to justify the cost. Using a color-complimenting pallette allows us to cover a broad spectrum, gives a completely different look from paint.

They look really nice. If you ever need someone to test out one of them on a Road Glide and provide I review, I'm more than willing to be your Ginnie Pig.

That's some big $$$ for a non matching inner fairing. I just painted my bike a few months back. I think I will do my inner next.
