Over the winter I would like to do some fab work and inlay some turnsignals and a break light into my rear fender. Has anyone done this before with any success? I'm trying to get ideas on how to go about it since I've never done fab work and this way I can get rid of the bulky looking lights and streamline the bike. Any thoughts or suggestions would be awesome!
yup,all the time,you need some red lexan,a clear defuser (found in florescent lights ,oven,3m clear panel bond or clear plastic epoxy (found in hobby stores),bodywork,clear coat etc.,, and allot of patience,keep in mind,they all crack or raise over time with heat and cold,most lights you see are in a design to hide the lines or striped,,look in some of the street rod mags,they sell pre made kits,,
here is mine. LED taillight molded into inside of fender, and license plate frenched in, no fasteners needed to hold the plate, it snaps into place.
one day may go back and mold the turns into it on each side fo the tail/brake. but not sure i would like the look of a bump there.
yeah, i know i did not blankot my plate, its ok, i put a new one with a different number on it every month, saves me from having to get a stupid inspection sticker, lol
had to really drop the cam resolution to get the forum to take it, hope it is viewable
