Who ever heard of a motorcycle product that didn't come with stickers?? How are we going to cover up our fairing scratches without more stickers?!?

If I send mine back, could you sign it and ship it back? 
BTW, do the caps that are removed to install the hugger fit into the holes left by removing the stock mirrors? I already painted caps and put them into the mirror holes so I'm not gonna pry the out, but theses caps appear to be the same size. That would be quite a solution if the caps did indeed fit!

the caps are different than the mirror holes... smaller fastener.

A sticker with your signature is one way to go.

NO
To each his / her own, of course, but since you asked ..... What I like about the huggers in black is that they are functionally present, yet visually absent. The latter changes if you paint them to match the bike.
Just my $0.02 - you should really do what you like best. Don't conform, don't seek consensus and definitely don't design by committee!
Heard this one a while back:
Q you know what a camel is?
A a horse designed by a committee
