Default Fender bib?

I want a custom looking fender bib for when I've got the pass. seat off. First off, where should I start looking for someone to make me one? Second, what should I have done? I don't want anything crazy, just something that's a little more custom than just buying the HD one. Anybody got any suggestions? Thanks...

LOL, Agreed, but since she doesn't ride but once every month (if that), the rest of the time I like having the solo look on my bike.

Thanks, Dr. V. I'll look into that. How much does one cost from them being custom made?

I tried a bib but didn't like the feeling of sliding off the seat after I added the cams and get on it..

Heres what I made from the X-tra pillion seat I had laying around after I bought the wife the touring seat.

Made me one the gives me back support and its great on long rides and trips when I go solo.

They will make it out of any material they have and stitch it how you like. They do not do tooling that I know of, but they made me a nice matching one for my seat.
