Talking "flipping" the fxd!!

So, ive been slowly getting my bike to where i want it. And the next step is paint!! I've decided to shave the tail light and replace it with the Billit Bros. lisence plate frame w/ the brake and blinker LEDs. also decided that if im going that far... i might as well shave the rivets off of the front fender.( I think i might lower the front fender a little too...) Anyways im taking pics in the process..

In the second pic I thought you were welding fins on there for a second before I seen that they were magnets to hold the other piece in.

Looks good!
