Default New Fender or Extended Fender for 4" Stretched Bags

I purchased a set of 4" extended bags and need to do something with the rear fender. I have found a few option. There is the option to buy a cover for the rear fender. The only problem is I still need to have the 4 points available for my sissy bar and tour pack. I know there are fenders out there that would still allow this but price is a factor. Fender, prep and paint will cost me about $300. Option 2 is the fender extender. This goes over the exsisting extensions. $120 shipped and about $50 to paint so $170 total.

Can I get some opinions on which one would be best? The bags are Sinister ABS 4" extended. I'm running V&H Big Radius so NO exhaust cutouts. Thanks....

I went a different route. I got the bags from V-Twin mfg and the fender from HD.

It was a little long for my taste so I trimmed a couple inches off mine.

Is that from the vendor fatboy brian posted?

I called them up too. They do not sell the one I need with no exhaust cut outs.

Consider picking up some beer cans and some overtime save up another $300.00 call Chuck at Benz and Bikes in San Antonio and go with the Sinister fender.
