Default Softail Deluxe Mud Flap Help

I am thinking about installing the Softail Deluxe Mud Flap, and not sure if I want to drill 3 holes in the fender. Not sure how it will look with the 3 chrome bolts in the fender. Has anybody installed the mud flap, and if so, could you send a couple of pics so I can see what it looks like? Thanks

CJ

How often do you ride in the mud?

Not to change your thread but I see you have the SAC grips. I bought a set but haven't installed them yet.

How do you like them???


I thought about the Mud Flap too but I ain't drilling any holes in my fender...

Mike-

I love the SAC grips! Really nice look, nice leather, and they're really padded to keep down road vibrations from numbing up the old hands.

I'm with you on the fear of drilling holes in the fender! Wanted to see if somebody had done it so I could see what it looks like.

Here is my mudflap! Sorry for the image size! Oh, and I don't have tractor tires either.

I think HD sells a kit withmud flaps andwindshield wipers. Just kidding with you friend. No doubt your going for the asthetic value. I agree though... not sure I would want to drill holes in my fender.
