Question Air Cleaner Cover ????'s

I have the Harley high flow (screaming eagle) air cleaner on my EG. I am currently using the stock cover and would like to know if I could use any cover that will fit over the filter (leaving some room for air flow)? I know I don't want to restrict air flow, but can't see how a smaller cover would hurt. Is any one using something other than stock? What are you using?

Thanks

I am looking for a replacement to the football AC as well. HD makes a simple round chrome AC cover I was going to go with unless something better comes along.

From the picture, it looks like just a flat cover with filter open to the elements. Any concern with riding in the rain?

My bike has the screaming eagle base with the Performance Machine cover.

A PM adapter kit makes it possible to use their many styles of covers on a screaming eagle air cleaner base.

Since this picture was taken I have painted the breather bolt washer black and installed chrome covers over the hex on the bolt.
