great job i made a set for a buddy at work that are shaped just like the harley plates and then welded on some steel tubing and we marked the tubing off and drilled holes thru it looked good then ran them thru the paint line at work for the black electra coating.

Man if my bike was blacked out id have it made at work. with the powder coat line and electra coat.

I know this thread is old.....

But, if you see this, can you share your measurements? Like total length, and where the bends are?

Thanks!
