Default Great Fender Experience with The Factory Match

Just had to share that I had a wonderful experience with The Factory Match https://www.thefactorymatch.com/ . Ordered my "Wrapper" front fender for my Wicked Red 2018 Road Glide Special and had it in less than 2 weeks. Total cost was $427 shipped, took less than 2 weeks and the match is perfect. I asked for and he gave me an HD Forum 10% discount (just put 10OFF in the promo code box at check out.). HD wants $849+++. I dealt with Brad, who responded to my inquiry through their website on a Sunday. I'm sure black or primed are cheaper. Several styles to choose from.

Sold my stock fender on eBay for $220+ shipping, so I'm net a little over $220.

Here's a pic. Bob

that looks nice, any problem with fitment? As in, was it was a direct replacement, no messing with shims, bushings, etc.?

Default Mounting Fender

Included these "mounts" (because it is narrower than the stock fender) that you can have in any color (Brad said people usually match their forks) or chrome. Seriously, this thing took 15 min tops to install...

IT worked for me too. Broke my tour pack lid, ordered a new one from HD looks like the new one. And I got to say the cost was in line.
