Ok guys I got the TP from AdvanBlack but returned it. Here is what I found.
Pros: AdvanBlack's customer service is great!
Arrived in exactly 2 weeks after the order was placed (much better than
Harley's lead time.)
Was packaged very securely in a really heavy box to prevent damage.
The lid and actual ABS box were very good quality not cheap or thin.
The paint color was a perfect match for my Superior Blue!
Cons: Black hardware was ordered but arrived with chrome. They were going to
ship the black out to me ASAP to make it right.
The hardware is very poorly made and is by far the weakest link in their
product.
Due to the poor hardware the lid had to be manually ligned up each time.
The paint job in general was lacking. There were some fish eye type
imperfections and the clear coat was just bad.
All in all I don't think it is a bad product. They were very receptive of my suggestions to better their product. I thought about keeping it, adding Harley premium hardware (which I think would fix 99% of the problem) and trying to buff the clear to make it work, however that is not what I paid for. I have a ton of $$$ into my bike and I want something just as nice to add to it. If you are one who likes to do stuff like this or have an older bike with some imperfections then the AdvanBlack TP is a great option for you. They refunded me 100% of my money as well as the $76.75 return shipping to CA it cost me. Great customer service and I expect in the future they will equal Harley with quality. This is just my $.02 and observations with the TP I recieved.
