If anyone knows where i can get one that is already powder coated black, let me know where and the part numbers.

For the back, i just removed the stock license plate bracket and installed a axle mount one i got off ebay. Looks great and no longer looks like i tumor off the backend of the bike.
Let me know what you guys think. I am eventually going to start my own thread so i can document my progress as i continually mod my bike. Thats part of the fun of owning a Harley right?
looks good man!...cant wait to get my p/c back so i can get the show on the road!

Yeah, waiting for that parts to get here or get finished is the worse part. It seems like it takes forever. Lol

You can just remove those completely and bolt the lights right to the struts.

Did you put on the Arlen Ness 3" extensions? Or have someone do it? I want to put them on my bike. I will probably install it then take to the dealer to bleed the ABS brakes.
