Take a look see and tell me if it looks stupid.

I agree... doesn't look stupid at all



There are plastic plugs you can put in the empty holes. Lowes and Home Depot will probably have some the right size.

I agree with ridin'with the king. I fabricated plate,shaped it to fit the length of the 4 holes,painted it black and reinstalled with chrome boltls. Looks good and it works for me as I ride always solo.

I think it looks good without them. My g/f like boards over the pegs. I like hte look of pegs better. I will have a set of the Stealth boards/levers for sale shortly.
