Fatboy Fender for X Bones

So I bought a rear fender from a Fatboy to put on my bones

. It needs painted to match so I can still fill any holes for the tailight. Any recomendations for a tail light? I was thinking tombstone style but curious if anybody had any other ideas? Thanks for all and any help!

Get the model a sidemount. That would look killer.

Tombstone or a beehive for a good vintage look. Harley blew it with the stock fender , IMHO.

Your bike will look great with that fender! A guy in my neighborhood did the same thing with a full fender on his XBones. He used a tombstone and it looks "right" on that bike. I don't understand why HD does not put a full fender on that bike from the factory. Just my personal taste, but I think that bike screams out for a full fender.

x-bones rear fender

i agree. the stock rear fender looks wrong on the bike. the 130/16 ft tire has the look of an FL series, and the rear bobtail fender goes with the FX series. just my .02 cents
