Default New "old" Wide Glide conversion

I really like the long and low style of the previous generation. Installed 2015 street Bob pipes and 2009 fat bob fender. Also did the profile rims and mini apes.

I cropped your photos to get a better view. Looks good with the additional chrome, better looking pipes, and longer tail. You should put up some before and after photos.

Appreciate the help, thanks.
This was a mainly stock WG, bought in Dallas and rode back to Phoenix.

That looks like a Wide Glide is supposed to look. Nicely done.

That's what a Wideglide should look like! Except for the bobbed rear fender and leather saddlebags, that's what my 07 Street Bob looks like.

Looks awesome, good job! Much prefer the traditional wide glide over the new version.

P.s. If that recess on the front exhaust heat shield for the mid controls bugs you as much as it did me the part no you need is 65966-06

It does catch my eye, but I'm still thinking about adding a set of mid-pegs for my longer rides. having another place to put my feet would be handy.
Thanks
