Default Shaved Fender

I've been just looking at posts here for a couple of years, but it was about time I started my own thread.

Does anybody have suggestions for the "shaved" rear fender look on a street bob? I want to get the sausage light off of there and I'm deciding how I want to get rid of the mounting holes that will remain. Anything other than a bondo/new paint solution?

Southeast custom cycles will fill it in and lower and radius it and make it look the way it should have from the factory

I've seen quite few post with this question. Some of it will depend on what kind of seat you ride -- solo or two-up? I think I'm going to have the hole from the light filled and smoothed down. I had also considered just covering the hole left with a custom piece from http://www.emblemart.com/chromeemblems.html. I've seen some pretty badass SB's on here. Just swim through some on the posts, there's an infinite amount of ideas on her-

Does anyone make emblems that fit these holes that isn't a H-D logo or anyone else's logo that is made out of real metal? Can't put another logo on my bike, I've been taking as many off as possible but it is a futile task.
