Look in' good!

Since you took off your crash bar are you running ghost brackets for the bottom fairing mounts?

it's hard to tell from the pics, did you get the headlight bezel to fit?

You should be able to eBay the headlights, but I had to buy the signals new. I thought they were pretty pricy, and they we on back order. They were the last things I was waiting for.

So i didnt get pics fause its super late over here. I ibstalled the crssh bar and lowers. I will have to cut the lowers in order to run the stock crash bar mounts. Did you have to do that? I did get the 2010 and up fairing frame mount.

Also how much room do you have between the lowers and your fairing. mine is real close.

Im thinking instead of cutting the lowers to run ghost brackets.

Could you post a pic how vlose your lowersvare to the fairing

Looking good gartec, (I went the other way ofter a bad wreck= see Sig Line.)

There are Road Glide lowers and Electra Glide lowers and if you have Electra Glide lowers you'll need to cut them. On Road Glide lowers there are early and late style but that will only require a slight modification on the mounting studs (that attach to the crash bar.)
