Default FBI fender

Has anyone installed an FBI front wrap around fender? If so did you have them paint it? Also how was the quality of the paint, fender and mounting brackets? I have a 21" front wheel. I really want one. I am also interested in their rear fender & bags...

We have installed one in the past and the paint was nice plus the chrome brackets are good quality. They offer almost all the factory HD paints so that is a plus. We also offer a good quality steel wrap fender but we only offer it unpainted or in gloss black.

I'd rather ride a POS, ragged, twenty-year old Yamazuki, than put anything on my bike from FBI.

It's difficult to open up your wallet, and get behind a company that represents itself that way.

I don't think there is anything particularly special about their front fenders, but for the back...
I love that stretched wide fender. Bad Dad is the only one I've seen that looks quite like that. Bad Dad's is not a fender but a fender cover though. Does anyone besides FBI make this fender as a full fender?

i would have to agree, i have tried buying from them twice. first time i recieved the wrong part adn they kept telling me it fits, finally got them to refund my money. next time i ordered from them i got email within days saying my package shipped. i waited over a week ands emailed them took them almost 2 weeks to respond saying they will look into it. it took them aother week to tell me the part was backordered. so it took about 5 weeks total to not get my ppart and fight for another week to get my money back

I bought their 200mm rear wheel kit that included a swing arm, fender, motor and tranny offset and the assoicated nuts and bolts. They painted the fender to match the stock Harley paint. I'm satisfied with the color.
I would have to agree with the comments about customer service. They are kinda slow in getting stuff out to ya, but then, I think they are more setup to provide the mechanical service. If the cashier at the show didn't know to much detail about the parts, it may be pretty much the same as asking the cashier at a Harley dealer for tech information. They just don't know and ya can't expect them to know either. Ask the right person.

The front is FBI 21" wraparound, I bought unpainted. Quality is good no issues with CS.
The back fender is sinister it's. A replacement.

Got my front and rear fender from them along with my stretched bags. Good quality paint job. I had no issues from them concerning service or otherwise. And got my parts in a timely manner.
