I put a CVO rear fender on my electra glide. I used the Yaffe license plate holder though because I hated the factory one. I even used my Electra glide saddle bag bracket and have crash bars as well, I also put the CVO speaker lids on. Pretty much made the bike the way I wanted it.

I did this last year. I bought the kit from a 20% off online dealership store. Kit included everything needed to do the mod. Money well spent IMHO.
Check out my pics in my garage. It may help some. I also started a thread titled "Can't wait to add COLOR to my bike" that follows last years mods. More pics of the transformation there.

I'm installing the CVO fender kit on a buddy's bike at the moment. Along with a pair of the CVO style bags from Eastern, which are fantastic by the way.
Anyway, the CVO kit is a very thorough offering. Purchased from one of the discount dealers, it's not a bad price.
Consider the parts break downs, and the cost. You'll probably have to have it painted either way, I presume.
Taillights alone are around $330.
If it was me, I think I would go with a complete kit.

The right painter with the right materials and skills can shoot paint over chrome.
