Default extended bags

Im looking into possible getting some extended bags. My questions is do i have to get the rear fender with it too? If i dont get it, is my bike gonna look stupid? And if i do get it is it possible to have the detachable backrest and luggage rack? Without those two its impossible for me to get that done. Thanks for any info you guys can give me

I prefer bags and fender. My detachable stuff works fine with them.

Duraglide, is that a BadDad fender on your bike, if so did you have to buy any other hardware to keep your docking points on your bike?? I have been looking at the BadDad stuff pretty seriously lately and was wondering if I was going to have to give up my 4 point docking hardware when I mount a summit fender on my bike.

I didn't do the rear fender on my '07. I bought some fender fillers and had them painted to match. Here's a pic for you to see what I mean...

I kept the stock fender and fillers and I think mine look fine. I personally don't like a lot of the fenders. That's the best part about my bike...it's mine, and it looks like mine.

TJD Customs fender. Had to space all the docking points out 1/8". Tweaked the HD passenger backrest by just pulling the legs a little wider. The tour pak mount I made to fit.
