Google search, "Low Rider ST dash" and you'll see other options to consider including color matched and carbon fiber.

Chrome dashes can be brutal to ride with. I’ve had ‘‘em on a few Dynas before and the glare at times is insane in the sun. They look cool if the bike has a decent amount of other chrome parts but that was my experience.

My last bike had a chrome dash, I am so glad my LRST does not have chrome, I was alway trying to reposition my head so as to not be blinded by the chrome reflection in the sun...

I had this happen enough times with the oem chrome gas cap that came on my street bob, i can't imagine how bad that would be with a chrome dash

Had a chrome dash on my RK, as well the chrome headlight nacell, handlebar cover, etc. It was regularly quite blinding. Got good at riding with my head at odd angles and such.

Agree with you, I had a Sport Glide in 2022 in this color, I liked it a lot and I think it's the best color for the Low Rider ST or S which also make a great contrast with all the black trim...
