Default Road King fender match

Hi. I have a 2008 Road King (FLHRC). I have a dent in the front fender and it irks me every time I see/think about it. I also have access to a 2003 Road King front fender. Will the 2003 Road King fender fit properly on my 2008 Road King?

Thanks for the help in advance.

yes the showa forks were pretty much unchanged from 78ish to 2013

many RK owners find that a fatboy or Harley streetstalker kit fender are a nice upgrade- you need adapter blocks to mount.

Some thoughts...
A good body man can fix your fender and paint it to match.
HD matching paint is expensive
Pay close attention to the trim, many different fenders will fit but the holes for mounting trim can be different.

mkguitar and ORradtech - Thank you for the info. I will be sure to talk to my paint guy. I have spoken to him previously and he seems confident that he can match it.

Just to be clear: the 2003 RK fender will fit my 2008 RK with no modifications (as would have to happen with the upgrades that mkguitar suggested)

Thanks again!
