I got my rear fender ready to drill the holes I just have to move it up a 1/2" so the seat bolt lines up, so what do you think

 

'Up' forward or vertically ...? If vertical, should look pretty good ....

Only other comment I might offer is that the lower forward edge of the fender seems to visually form something of a shallow 'Vee' shape (due I suppose to the fact it was designed to clearance the softail 'swingarm') ... I would recommend cutting across that line horizontally (or in a line with the bottom of your battery tray) and rounding the rear edge to curve gently upward ....

Compare it to the inner rear lines of your original fender ....

What's your end game WRT finish ... are you painting all your tins or just the fender to match the rest of your bike ...?

Keep us posted ... looks great!

BTW - what is the source of the fender ... Softail Heritage/Deluxe ...?

 

Nice looking fender, I agree with R/chop... radius or reshape the front fender line just ahead of the shock to get a cleaner look. The Troll

 

Thanks for you opion and it came off a 2005 heritage and I am going to hide that area with a tool box for the dyna like cpt cj did

 

That would work, too ....

Good work ....

Everything is going to be blue also I'm going to paint the front and rear fenders on saturday I wanted to go black but the wife likes the blue, maybe go all black next year

 

Is this the bag you're going to use ...?



Do you have one already ...? Do you know where I can get one ...??

That is the one I want, they don't make them anymore so I will have to keep an eye on ebay to get one

 

Friggen' looks great. Exactly what I am doing to my bike. Can't wait to see more.

 

Thanks next I need to score a 16" front wheel or do a 120 front tire with a 21" rim. Your springer looks great I miss my old springer here's a shot of it my lod one and new one
