Actually truth be told. She really wants me to knock it off. She wants me to save my $$$ for a Street Glide to ride 2 up.

Not a bad idea, but I asked her if that was so that I can ride my girlfriend or her?

Her answer: For the G-friend, just make sure you have your trailer hooked up to your truck so you can pack up the rest of your crap too. LOL LOL

Morristown, but a fly by night operation.

If you need anything done, I have a guy right here by my job who does great work, and very reasonable.

But I can also give you a members name here who's work looks great and his prices are very good to.

Had a buddy of mine in his body shop slot the fender, then we cut a piece of SS tubing, sliced it, and welded it in. Made a little troft for the light.

The light is a Custom Dynamics Flex Array LED light. With the converter, it does it all(stop, tail, and directional)

If you call them they will make it to your custom specs.

Unfortunately no pics of the actual work on the fender.

I can take a pic of the underneath for you tomorrow being the wheel is off, but we also shot it with a Rhino Line material to protect under the fender so it's a bit hard to see.

Nice part about the PM fender is that they weld in 2 tubular supports inside so that's where I snuck the wiring in

If I'm not mistaken I think the light is DOT approved. But don't quote me on that. I'll tell you what, it's BRIGHT!

Go on you tube, I have a video of the light. Just search Flex Array and you'll see it.
