Depends on how you want it to look...... I like the stock football cover, and when I was running the big sucker, that's what I used, and I couldn't see it, but using a small AC cover..... You could see the servo and wires and everything else!

I bought the PM servo cover.... a lot smaller than the HD one and covers only what you need.

I may be the minority here, but I like the look of the exposed wires...

It's not that I like the look of the exposed wires, it's that I don't care for a bunch of non functional parts on my bike.

I installed the HD Heavy Breather and realized the Throttle Body/wires were exposed......personally I thought it looked pretty crappy so I purchased the HD chrome version for $59.00. I like the covered look........but as always it more money than you accounted for!

This is the chrome version I purchased for my 2013 SG.......also make black

I would like to see the PM in chrome, seems like that would blend in with the push rod's nicely.
