Default Docking hardware info/pic request?

I am adding the shortest Harley Davidson sissy bar and pad for my wife along with the luggage rack which requires the four point docking hardware kit. Our Road King is black. Should I try and conceal the hardware kit and order the black one, or have it show in brilliant chrome color?

Any pics or suggestions??

Is there a better detachable system than OEM HD??

Thanks all

Ken

Not a Road King, but a Street Glide. I'm a Chrome junkie so it was chrome for me.

I opted for chrome because the sissy bar and luggage rack is chrome so it looks right with everything on. I thought about black to try and hide the hardware but I saw one at the dealer and it didn't look right, it doesn't blend imo.

My Street Glide is black, I think Chrome is the way to go. IMO
