Fender is coming out great.I would put the plate below the light. I thought you were kicking around the idea of a electric hidden plate? Is that out?

Plate to big to hide it since I tucked the fender to the tire.

Plate below the light for sure. When you slam the bike, how close is the fender to the ground?

I think at least 1 1/2" off the ground. They are just below the pipes.

Just kick the fender back about an inch, and drill bew holes and should give you room to play. You guys chopping 2 fenders to make one are killing me bro hahahaha
