Default Anyone use the factory Match Bags/fenders etc?

I am looking at the factory Match 4 1/2" stretched bags, extended side covers, Sick Rick Rear fender with CVO lights and level front fender. Total cost is $3700 shipped. They are also known as Smitty's custom painting.


Anyone have any experience with them? I know they are a little more than ordering bags, fenders etc... and sourcing them out for paint but since everything comes ready to bolt on and go, it seems to be a good plan.


Is there any other places to buy everything factory painted (big blue pearl) I should check before pulling the trigger?


I am looking to do this and add air shocks to lower the bike instead of the current lowering blocks that bottom out all the time.


Any opinions are appreciated.

Keep us updated.

Just went to the website. www.thefactorymatch.com

Sounds interesting. Probably still nearing $5k with install and hidden costs. But, for the money... instantly have that awesome bike.

Im interested.

I got front and rear fenders, side covers and bags from them a few months ago. Top notch and matched the factory pearl paint perfectly.

I've seen their website and it looked pretty good to me. Been pricing paint only for a set of saddlebag bottoms and getting prices that make the Factory Match look like a good deal. I can get the bags already painted from Factory cheaper than buying bags and then having them painted. Got prices of $800 to $1200 just to paint bottoms in ember red sunglo. Be interested if anyone else does same kind of program.

It looks like pretty fair pricing to me and one stop shop to boot. I beleive these are same guys Topshop uses if you request they paint there parts before ship.

This is good news. I think I am going to pull the trigger. If you email they will give you a 10 percent off code if you are ordering multiple pieces. I am looking at $3600 shipped for bags, rear fender, front fender and side covers.
