Default Need curved license plate frame

Just installed the Harley Tour Pak detachable kit for my 2015 Ultra Classic and can't stand the license plate frame that came in the kit. NO billboard look for me! I installed the Drag Specialties LED tail light with bottom tag light #2010-0773. Have been trying to find a curved chrome plate frame that fits flush to the rear finder between the tail light and bottom rear finder light. I want as little of a gap between the plate frame and finder as possible. I don't mind drilling holes in the finder as this will be a permanentinstall. Thanks for the help.

If you want it lit up for the plate, Custom Dynamics has a nice one.

Brian, that looks great. I have two questions for ya: is this the Bikers Choice or Drag Specialties and is there much of a gap between the tag frame and fender? Thanks for the help.

Brian, couple of questions for ya: you used Bikers Choice not the Drag Specialties and does it leave much of a gap between the tag frame and fender? That thing looks great!!

Yes the one I have on there now is the bikes choice. I had the drag specialties before and it was two piece and it lasted two years but the little screws holding it together stripped out. Plus with it you had to trim a lot of the plate to fit. Picture is what it looks like apart. The Bikers choice is one piece billet aluminum and has about a 1/2" gap but I left the rubber piece from the other mount in between the frame and fender so that makes it stick out father than normal. This one will require a little trimming the sides and top corners of plate but not too much. It is a lot better frame mount and I wish I would have seen it when I did this fist time. Let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks Brian. I spent a week trying to decide what frame would work for me and you helped me pick the one. I just pulled the trigger on amazon. Thanks again!
