The way the fender is mounted... it will always have the dirt bike look...just like a pre 92 Harley springer...getting the rockers level will not change that.

I wouldn't feel too bad about that. It's been my experience that everything you do for the first time is as much about the learning experience as it is about the result. The second time is always a thousand times easier. My current project is driving that lesson home big time. No matter how much you think you've thought something through, you never know what you don't know.

That is the truth and this is a heck of a learning experience. But what once was anger now is turning into love or O.C.D not sure which All I do know at this point is that she is going to be a honey of a ride.

That’s high enough.
What are the chances you might be able to fab the mounting brackets to lower the fender?
