Im assuming its just double sided tape? Why use 2? Are the holes too spread apart for just one tribal decal? Any other options out there besides the "tribal style"?

Yes I needed to use 2 because the holes are too far apart. And yes, it is 3M double sided tape...very easy to install. However, I did have to customized one of the tribal plates in order to get them to butt together. The bottom of the tribal plates have a slight curve to them, so I shaved off a portion of so they would fit together nicely.

Yes, it has six LED lights on the side. If you look the earlier post in this thread, you will see the Ebay item number that I purchased. If you do a search on Ebay using that item number you will see a detailed description of the plate frame.

There is also a "skull" version, but still requires two covers. The dealer wants about $500 to seal the holes and repaint the rear fender

RockerDave nice job, By the way would you mind sharing the part# of Arlen Ness kit you went with, and any info you would like to share about installation, easy?. Thanks my buddy and I wants to drop his very soon.
