Mustang vintage wide solo already bought for her, just waiting to stick it on there and ride when I'm done.

Would like to see updated pics as well, like where your bike is headed
I still have the factory front fender. Have to come up with a price if you're interested. Send me a PM if so, and we'll move out from there. Also, make sure the fat bob front will fit a low rider. I'm not sure myself, but remember the fat bob has a fat front tire, which don't know if makes a difference or not with the fork spacing, which is all you need to consider.

Mounts are different for sure - LR uses the same mouting holes as other mid glide Dyna models such as FXDC, FXDB, etc plus there is the width difference.

I knw its not a direct bolt up, I am looking for a the fat bob front fender for the width of the fender itself because I am putting a 120/70/21 on my bike, I am having a friend use the factory mounting brackets from my stock fender modded to fit a fat bob fender, tried sourcing a wider fender in the aftermarket for the lowrider but there really are none out there and the ones that are out there are ugly looking or stupid priced for a piece of primed aluminum.

A few years back, someone here relaced a 16X3.00 touring rim to his mid-glide front hub. He kept the mid-glide front end and just reshaped the tabs from a Fat Bob fender and got it to fit. Just might be worth trying before drilling out the old bracket.

The factory brackets on the fatbob fender will most likely have to be drilled off because I don't think they will be tall enough to accommodate a 21" wheel, but first i need a fender in my hand to try mockup

Kudos for being able to do those mods. I'll take the stock Fat Bob look any day of the week but it's your ride and it's definitely unique.
