Default Custom Fender

I'm looking to buy or have made a custom internally strutted fender for my 2012 HD Softail Slim like the one below. Unfortunately, it appears that CarolinaCustomProducts.com/motorcycles where I found this is out of business.

If I have to, I'll buy a fender blank or Lucky Sucker from Custom Chrome or somewhere and dust off my VERY rusty welding skills to mount the brackets but I'd rather get someone that can make it look better than I can.

It would be great to find someone near Charlotte NC, but I'm good with whoever can get the job done right.

Any suggestions?

I bought a Lucky F*cker fender from Custome Chrome and had a couple mounting brackets welded to the swing arm

Brett, not to jump the OP but It looks like the Santee TC round oil tank. Have been thinking about this one myself but it looks like you would have to make custom lines.

JC...thats a bad *** mod bro, you've been busy with that thing..looking good!

I'm interested in something similar for my Blackline. Internal struts would be cool or even swingarm supports. I'm amazed there isn't a bolt-on product available out there given the number of people that do this mod (or want to do this mod). Roland Sands mocked up a cool swingarm mounted fender for a Blackline project about a year ago. They hinted they might bring it to market but nothing yet.

Check out Ric's bikes over at Southeast Custom Cycles in NC. Too late for the OP but Ric has some slick builds with swingarm mounted fenders.
