If I were building apes or mini apes, I would re enforce the area's that I compromised with the cuts.
the chrome flake seen in one pic shows that it is single layer coating & not the highest quality out there. I am going to guess that they have a supply contract with a lil Chinese guy who sells them box's full of bars & they put their company logo on them!
Don't throw them out, weld them & save them for a different bike!

If a customer ever has a problem like this is is from installing incorrectly. Some of the guys on these forums know our products. They are made in California USA. We as a company do not like anything made in China. The problem these days is everything on a Harley is made in China except the engine, frame & front forks. The forks are made in Japan.
All our products are made here. Know the facts before spouting off.
