Default Latest Mod... Spoiler ****

Finally got it on. I am sure happy with the result but JESUS TAP-DANCING CHRIST, what a pain in the ba*ls. HD's directions leave a LOT to be desired as they mix in pre-07 and '08-on instructions within the text.

The toughest part of the install? THE FARKING ZIP TIES!!!1 *&$&&#&#(#(#&@@@)()(@@@*%$^%. I cannot believe how many parts it took just to put this purely cosmetic piece of plastic on the Train.

On a positive note, I ordered it primed, fully prepared to take it to my painter. I pull it out of the box, hold it next to the bike and it almost PERFECTLY matches! I brought the wife out to verify this (she's an artist and fashion designer) and she agreed.

Anyhoo, my last mod for a while... until I order the next headlight...

Ditto on the pain. Also Harley says the engine guard won't fit. Yeah right! Just need to add your own hardware.
