Default Show me your Stretched fender

So I am thinking about either buying a couple of wrecked rear fenders to stretch, a builders fender, or just an aftermarket rear fender for my Slim. The Slim is now a chub because I upgraded to 200mm last winter and that narrows the availability of aftermarket options.
Not wanting to do a tail dragger but want a longer smooth fender. Show me what you have. Interested in seeing what's out there and getting some ideas. Thanks

Mine's a composite job from Dragonfly Concepts. Only real stretch fender for 200 tire that I know of, that's available commercially. 1st choice was something from Klockwerks, but they didn't (and still don't) have anything. 2nd choice was fabbing something, but I lack fabbing skills, so this was the 3rd alternative...

Nice one Hoggy. The side mount plate is similar to my set up and still looks good with the stretch. Had not heard of that company. Does the composite fender rattle or is it sturdy. This is my one up bike so there will never be a passenger.

Doesn't rattle at all. It vibrates a bit, but with these B motors you won't hear it rattle. I don't know about now, but when I bought mine 5 years ago, it wasn't exactly bolt-up. I had to enlarge some of the holes and make some new ones. Wasn't hard, tho...

I also had them remove the license plate indentation that it normally comes with. Since plates are bigger in Japan, it wouldn't have fit, plus i didn't like the look...
