I found a pretty sweet paint set off a 97 sportster, I have a 99 sportster and noticed the rear fender was a little different. Will a rear fender from a 97 work on my 99? Thanks in advance..

 

From my understanding. Most parts from mid 80s to 2003 are mostly interchangeable

 

Any pics of this paint set? Info?

 

Hi from the UK and welcome to HDF. You can compare part numbers by using one of the on-line parts websites, like this one. If you open two tabs, with different years, you will see that the '99 rear fender has a different part number, the main difference apparently being an internal brace at the rear. Otherwise it is indeed likely the '97 will fit.
