Doesn't look like it.
If you zoom in you can see depth and shadows - and, are those screws?

They are screw heads, but I can't imagine anyone drilling holes in the oil tank for cosmetic accessories. That could prove really messy...tp

The numbers are brass house numbers from ACE hardware. I used clear 3m adhesive and cut the screws down and superglue them in

Sounds like the same thing guys do when applying new badges to tanks.
Nice job...

Chemelion-Hey bud, did you bend your mirror stems so they wouldn't hit the tank when fully locked?

I didn't bend them. It is very tight but it clears.

Goldtopdude, the seat is a Softail deluxe. I modified the factory under fender mount and padded it with a piece of foam rubber. It has made riding my bike much more comfortable. I added the 2005 heritage springer classic concho on the side.
