Default My Riding Buddy Made These Flagholders

A mechanically inclined buddy of mine had some scrap metal lying around and made these flagholders.
Unfortunately, the store was closed today, so I'll get the flags tomorrow.
Theyr'e really heavy-duty and clamp on to the bag rails, so they'll only fit touring bikes with bag rails.
I told him that if he made them in chrome and/or powder coat, that he'd really have something there.
Comments, questions?

nice- It'd be nice to do something similar that would get them up higher for visibility and also not to obscure the signal/ brake lights from vehicles at an angle.

your Pal can make stuff!

Some nice chrome acorn nut on the mounting brackets would be nice.
