Headlight bezel
« on: November 03, 2012, 07:28:05 PM »

I bought and installed this sinister headlight bezel.

http://www.roadglide.org/showthread.php?t=13792

I paid $165.00 for it, but I just saw it using Google for al low as $110.00

I had to have it painted, it came in black like my bike, but it was a dull back, not the glossy black like the stock one. If you decide to buy one, not that the bezel itself does not need to be trimmed, however the tabs that clip it into the fairing needed to be sanded a bit as they are too thick to fit into the fairing slots. It took me about 45 minutes to carefully sand the tabs and it fit as good as the stock bezel.

I think it makes the RG look mean!

Looks pretty cool in the daytime. Looks like it covers up some of the lights, did this have any adverse effect at night? Makes it kinda look 3D.

I'm sorry. Mean no disrespect.  But Angry Bird is what the new headlight bezel made me think of.

Just came from the 3 word thread, angry bird was the furthest from my mind, I fully expected the word boobies to appear!

You probably just threw that in there cause you think it needs some red!

I think it looks awesome.  If I had a shark, that's one of the first cosmetic changes I'd make.  Nice work.

None, one of the first changes I made to the RG was to add HID bulbs, still just as bright!
