I'd say I'm about 90-95% complete with the mod process. Got the painted tank and fenders back to today. The only things left are to hook up the wiring to the rear lights, lower the rear end (already have the parts) and maybe black out the engine. So here's a recap of what I did:

Wild1 Chubby dresser bars
Blk HD levers
Blk Diamond HD grips
Relocated front turn signals
Arlen Ness mini oval mirrors
Samson rip saw pipes (black)
PM aircleaner
NYC Choppers solo saddle
Blk Diamond HD shifter pegs
Blk passenger pegs (flush to frame)
Roland Sands Design tracker fender and struts
Roland Sands headlight relocator
Model A lic plate/tail light
Auto Gem rear turn signals
Shade Tree Fab. battery cover
Brown Heat wrap
Blk HD flush gas caps
Wild1 Chubby Knuckle bars (yes I changed the bars again)
Grimeez Custom Paint and Airbrushing (www.grimeezcustompaint.com)

I think that's it. Well here are some more pics. The first one is bone stock.

Looks great. The only thing I would have done different is left the heat wrap off. I don't know why, just doesn't look like it belongs...
Where did you get the tail light? I am thinking of one for mine, how did you run the wiring to it?
