The Tri-Bar taillight should have come stock... looks 100% better.
Agree completely.

Thanks and thanks. I think the tri-bar light might look good with the stock plastic license plate holder. The stock light might also look better if it didn't stick out so far past the fender.

Thanks for all the advice. I'm still undecided if i want to keep the bobtail fender or go with a chopped fender. I do think the tri bar dresses the tail up.

Anyone try to remove the reflector strip on the tri bar and mount your plate up higher? I've never seen one of theem in person to know if it is even possible.

It's tight but you can get cut the wire ties and install the tail light without taking off the fender...I had to walk away and come back and finish it later.

The reflective strip isn't stuck on, you have to tighten two screw behind it before you put it on...mines still in the box. I didn't move my plate up but I don't see why you couldn't drill two holes and move the plate up.
