Default Added 4.5” stretched saddlebags

I have a 2008 ultra and I just installed a set of Mutazu 15-up 4.5 inch stretched saddlebags with the one touch easy open latch. The install was pretty easy just opened up the mounting hole on the rear mounting bracket with a Dremel. The only issue I have with them is they do not match exactly color wise. Here is some pictures... I am unsure if I want to keep them on or not because of the color. What would y’all do

Looks great! How much did those run if you don’t mind me asking? Looking at getting some for mine.

They look good but.... if you don't like the color match send them back and get some that do match. The bike looks good that way.

You could always check with the one who did the artwork on the driveway ... maybe they could do a better job of matching the color? :>)

They ( bags ) look okay in the picture, might be different in person

Ebay seller sells them for close to $400 shipped. If you have a standard color they can be had for much cheaper. Mutazu sells a good bit of aftermarket so I felt like they were quality over the China specials.

Yeah probably have to bring to a painter and get them paint matched with the harley paint code.

Yep that and then to the pin stripe guy to get the job finished. They will look good when done.
