Very nice timberland, I have been asking around shops and no one seems to want to tackle that job. That is schweeeeeeet. I was looking to add the 09 fender 0n my 08 with the stretched bags. From Thanksgiving til now, I see why they are hesitant LoL !. Anyway will be loooking for the finished product.

I haven't totaled a number for the cost for the mod. I did place my takeoffs on ebay and sold the facia for three times what a new unpainted one cost...had lots of bidders too. Got me to thinking of ordering 10 unpainted facias and painting them black and posting for $125. Sold the turn signals for two times what my LED's cost. First guess, I have only the cost of a 09 fender about $200 delivered from Zanotti's.
The fender didn't take from Thanksgiving....the whole project, new wheel blank, hubs and widening the stock fender to fit a Metzeler...but not enough for the Dunlop. Thats when I decided to take a trip to the HD shop with a tape measure. The 09 fender took about 8 hours start to finish as you see it. My thought was if I screw it up they sell more of them everyday.
The hoop, grab bar ..... I was back and forth as what to do with it. First, the struts attach to it. I've seen some that cut off the hoop and placed caps, lights and all. Didn't matter to me either way so I left it. ...Besides how would I tell mine from a 09 if I cut it off ?, LOL
