Default Rear Filler Strips Recommendation

For those of you who have rear filler strips, the trim piece you buy to fill in the gap between the saddlebags and rear fender, I'm wondering what you use? I looked them up on Harley's website but not really interested in dropping $200 on them. Are there any aftermarket brands you recommend? It would be for a 2009 Road King in vivid black that is used for 2-up riding and solo riding. I am not talking about the fender extension with the filler strips 'built in' as that doesn't really work with my RK, just the filler strips themselves. I did a search here but all I could find were pictures and not a lot of info on aftermarket brands.

Subscribed, I'm curious as well. '09 Ultra Classic here. Everything I've found is outrageously priced. Seems that something could be fabricated easily enough.

I've found a few sets (painted and chrome) on eBay for $60-80. I made my own out of angled steel. Haven't installed them yet (having too much fun riding).

I bought the HD one's for the ultra. Figured $200 wasn't terrible for them painted and ready to install.

I've purchased the HD ones for my last 3 bikes. Thought the price was reasonable considering they are painted to match with excellent fit and quality.
Nothing in the aftermarket comes close... that I know of.

The CD lights are a good option. I wanted the saddle bag lights, and thought having those also would be overkill.

H-D color matched fillers here too. Extra lights on the rear of the Limited is needed, IMO. Went with the saddlebag lights for that, rather than fillers with lights.

I just put a set of V-Factor filler panels on this spring . I went with the black ones knowing they would arrive in flat blk , so I painted them and clear coated them to match the vivid blk . I like them , and the price too . https://www.denniskirk.com/v-factor/...rd/5000595.sku
