Converting 06 WG to 2010-2011 WG
I can't believe no one has done this yet? From all the research I have done the 2006 thru 2011 Wide Glides most parts interchange. I recently bought a 2006 Wide Glide with only 3000 miles so it's barely broken in and I got it at a good price but I love the look of the 2010-2011 Wide Glides. My plans are to sell or swap the 06 fender,tail light,seat,sissy bar,mini ape handle bars,windshield,etc.and convert my 06 to look more like a 2010.
I was wondering if anyone else has done this or even thought about it?
Pros Vs Cons?

+1 on that, however i think Harley makes a chopped fender kit you can get that would fit.....

You could probably get a 06-08 Street Bob fender and chop it to resemble the newer Wide Glide.
You could get a 10-11 WG tank and console and swap them, then it is mostly the bars and you would nearly have a clone.

To make it fit you would have to chop off the struts and re-weld them, it would be much easier to mod the fender than the struts. If you ride 2up much I would not mod the struts, they support all the passenger weight.

Some one posted that thus ground down the fender mounts on the struts to make enough room to make the fender fit.

That's a really good idea! Keep us posted as to your progress. And remember, without pics, it doesn't exist.
