**** me that does look good. In the photo here it looks almost like its perfectly machined.
I'd love one in Satin Chrome with Gold lines. That'd fit my bike so well. But I got the 120th inserts right now.
Your solution looks hella good in photos for sure though.

But this rack is every bit as good as the Motherwell I had for my old Slim... and way cheaper

FYI, there's a guy on Etsy who makes outstanding custom Ventilator inserts and might be able to work up what you want.

Ordered Custom Dynamics plate so I can relocate the license plate frame to the back
Looking at Saddlebags & a tank bag now
Still rain & miserable for the next 10 days
Buy may just try to put the Snowblower away & get ready to move the plate soon

If this is who I think it is, I believe I already emailed and talked to them. He told me he wasnt able to do a Chrome insert since all of his stuff is based around the black ones. He did say he could do a mirror one, but I declined because the 120th insert came out and it fits my bike's color scheme and theme.

On top of that I lied... Wife got the norovirus and both my daughters decided to get colds that morning. Never even made it into the garage lol

Now they sprayed that liquid salt **** over every square inch of road in the county, so I get to wait for another giant rainstorm before pulling it out...
