I wanted to add some vent screens to the glide, but thought the price they want for these is kinda ridiculous. So I bought a small sheet of sheet metal. With holes off of eBay.
Made a template and cut it, and the piece I bought. Was kind of thick and would not easily bend in place, once I got it in, it looked sloppy. So. I decided to go a different route with something a bit more flexible. Decided to cut up an old mesh trash can.
It took some trial and error to get it cut right, but they are inand I do like this look.
Anyhow, this was the first time I had the outer off, and I gotta say, harleydid good with the new ones, soooooooooo much better than the old models, fairly easy removal, and crazy simple installation in comparison. No more trying to hook thefront by the headlights.
I like the contrast yours provides. I went with black gutter guard from the hardware store:
A cereal box gave it's life so I could dial in the pattern before burning up the screen.
Now to sort out that top vent....
