Default License Plate Laydown

The HD part that allows me to mount the plate at an angle against the fender is like $44. Seems WAY overpriced.

Get the aftermarket. Lays down flatter than the HD unit. They are all the same, but different brand packaging. Mine is Custom Chrome.

I have the Kury too. It is not a bent piece of sheet metal like some of the others, it is a billet style piece that fully encases the plate front and back for a clean look. The plate is actualy bolted inside and it has a chrome braket underneath to the fender. I thought it was pricey until I had it in my hands...very sturdy piece

This one does not lay down dead flat but it is curved which gives it a nice look and keeps the cops off your back.

J+P Cycle on mine. agree with motown bend them down flat and you're subject to stop when they can't see it at a glance.
