I have never asked this before, but - How many people like the front and rear bumper on E-Glides?

It looks nice when you take the rubber thing off and leave the chrome bars so I always wonder why some folks leave the rubber in place. I mean it's not like it is going to save anything if you get hit. I just don't undrstand what the rubber thing does and why HD hasen't changed that look for ...what... 15 or 20 years?

I like the clean look of the Street Glide and the Ultra SE's.

Am I wrong? Do most people like the bumper look and the rubber thing?
