BadDad bags and rear fender
I just got off the phone with my painter and he is picking up the tins on Thursday morning! the bad news is he isn't a full time painter and is going on vacation at the end of the month. oh well more time for me to get the funds needed to pay the man!

Bad dad all in one competition fender and bags
I have a Bad Dad all in one competition fender and stretched bags on their way. Is there anything I need to be aware of during install? Has anyone had any issues with the wire tube? Should I mock up fender before paint? I am also curious on how well the Bagger nation exhaust extension kit works. Any input would be appreciated.
Streetglide54 I would mock it up for sure. You may need to make a few tweeks here or there but for the most part I am thrilled with the product and if I build another bagger will go back to them for sure!

Mock up bad dad
Thanks Lucky for the advice. I received bags and fender yesterday. Very nice. After playing with it Looks like the stretched side covers will be ordered. That should give the back end a flow.

Lucky, I just got my bad dad fender cover and bags. Did you get an overlay, if so how did you mount yours?

streetglide54 I thought about the side covers but decided against it. I kind of dig the look with the stretched bags and stock covers. Idk maybe its just me.
cull22420 I got the Summit replacement rear fender, it is a direct replacement all you have to do it swap out all the mounting hardware over to the new fender. I had to drill out a few holes a little bit extra but its pretty much ready to go replacement. I am not sure how to mount an overlay but I do know BadDad has an "instructions" section on their website or email their customer service as they have been more than helpful with any questions I had for them.

side cover..
I was staying with the stock side covers but after putting a saddle bag on it looks like the stretched cover will make it flow a little more. I am going to have to call Bad Dad. The fender did not come with any hardware. I know it says use stock but I thought I would have to use a different lower bracket being the fender is stretched..
