Default Rocker side mount done!!!!

So the total cost was 50$ with all parts and zip ties. It only took me about 2 hours to do the whole job. let me know what you think. Now i need some good and clean ideas to fill the holes in the rear fender. I liked those spikes but where can i get them?

Great job, side mount plate looks great, I like the black. Just fill-in the holes and have a smooth fender.

If you want it to look really clean...... send it out to get some of that fender chopped off and get it re-painted. You spent so much money on the bike already. Do yourself and the bike that favor. To me the spikes are a cheap way out. I understand if people don't have the money. My way of doing things is if your gonna do it, Do it right. My brother has a Rocker and he wanted to do something about the whole rear end. I told him to save and do it the right way. No offense to the spikes and other things. It's your bike. Rocker Mike that is one clean fender with the tail light in it. Cleanest i have seen.
