I have a set and wish I would have bought the HD for the 500.00 bucks. I was not satisified with the paint and the quality sucked IMO. I had a problem installing the gloveboxes in which once I tighten all the screws down some of the plastick broke and rendered them useless. I ended up having to get new gloveboxes from Harley. Do not buy cheap plastic.

well, I didn't know they would be like that when I bought them, Imagine my surprise when I took them out of the box to check them out and saw HD part numbers... as far as I know they are real HD lowers and the price was right! I have no complaints!

counterfit or not, I really don't care... LOL!
