I got Top Shop 3 inches stretch bags and a extended overlay fender. (Body guy said he didnt like over lay fender, But looked cool)

Bags have been straightended out/lined up. This set up costs 1050. Bags are fiberglass and carpeted. Be very careful of these afte rmarket ABS bags. Lots of complaints of warping and they need tons of body work to be ready for paint. Top Shops came almost ready for paint

Friend has BadDad bags and fender. The quality was great,and everything lined up fine. The painter even remarked on what little prep was needed.

Bigdave, nice setup, do you have any pics from the side? Was this price before or after paint?

I have the CVO style bags from Eastern Performance, there a 3" stretch. I also have a cheap fender extension that I bought of ebay. I think I paid 350 for the bags and 140 for the fender extension. I have about 300.00 in paint. I had a Milwaukee Bagger street sweeper extension but I managed to break it. Didn't match the bags so well anyway. You can check out my garage for more pics. The bags I bought are great. No problems so far. Minimal prep work. Fender extension was about 45 minutes prep work, i cut about 2 1/2-inches off of it because I felt like it was to long.

That price was before paint. My whole bike got painted and Stenciled that cost me 3500., I dropped off bike. I didnt take anything apart.

You can check out my gallery, There are side pics in there.

Do a search of After market bags and ABS bags. More complaints than compliments

All stretched bags and fender overlays need tweaking a lil. The photo of my bike in the window was at Body shop. Took me about 1 hour tops to get them lined up perfect. If you look at the picture you can see one side up a lil and out. And other is slighty off

Also note my bags follow the body line of the side cover. The Fatboy brians are just stretched in back 3 inches. Those are not my cup of tea. I also and not a fan of a Street Glide. Not saying there is anything wrong with either.

Go on Top Shops Web site and give them a call they are very nice and helpful. Price drops on phone call too. Price they give you is shipped to you. No other charges. And I think they will paint them black

Top Shop Bags great quality lined up perfect with stock fender.Nasi rear fender lined up perfect with the top shop bags.Bags will be glassed and cut so the pipe cut outs match perfectly round. hits body work and paint next week>pay once and get what you want so you don't end up doing it twice.
