Fatboy Lo Brake Light, I want it OFF my fender?
I'm thinking I want my Lo fender to be clean, no brake light, no plate, no signals! I know what to do with the plate and brake light (mount on axle nut) and I know what to with signals (eliminate them). But I dont know what to do with the hole left in fender from my brake light? Is this doable? I do not want to change the Lo fender. Help! Paint shop?

Get some kind of emblem to cover up the hole. I'm sure there has to be something out there somewhere.
Or look into getting a custom fender bib made to wrap the whole length of the fender. That would be different from the norm.
Just a couple ideas....

Can't help with the brake light but here is what I did with my tag and tag light. I filled the three tag holes with some plastic plugs from Home Depot for about a nickle a pop. Painted them black and I think it is very clean.
They also sell cool tribal looking emblems you can buy to fill the tag holes. And my signals were relocated to my work bench.

Yea, I knew that was the answer, chit! If I do that, then I'm thinking of extending my fender down about 2 more inches. Couldn't cost much more since I'll have it off.
Anyways, Thanks!

What about getting an unfinished aftermarket fender? You can still have the stock one standing by if something changes later.
Just a thought.

JIMSFBL,
This Kury unit (#3179) actually has an effective L.E.D. brake light.
I covered the three fender holes with these 'mini-pistons' (which match the risers) license plate screws. JB Weld'ed a nut inside the fender, so they easily unscrew.
