We don't have much to brag about in OZ about availability of accessories, but I just received a Sissy Bar from a bloke in Brisbane. Price and quality are 1st class.

Have a look here.

I got a black powder coated, but he's not making them anymore. Also got a couple of the licence plate holders made from the marine grade stainless, and they look just great.

They do look pretty darn good. That lounge sissy bar looks like it would go well with a more traditional style king/queen seat. The prices are not too bad either.

They look kinda flimsey, like they're made out of sheetmetal, not steel like the factory version. I hope that's just due to poor photography not poor construction.

Not flimsy at all. I wouldn't want to get whacked in the lug hole with one anyway .

Also they're larger than they appear on the site. The backrest is about 30cm x 30cm, which is much larger than a factory version I had on a T'bird.
