$220 bucks cash to take the fender I bought, line the inside with rubberized coating and paint the top with gloss black and clear coat, color sanded and buffed.

Pick her up tomorrow....I'll post pics of this thing of beauty.

Bike is 2 weeks out....already got a pile of parts for it....gonna put a bit of Superglide back in my Street Bob.....new Hogs are just GREAT!

Shoulda welded a nut inside of that passenger seat hole, that way a button head bolt finishes it off nicely and no unsightly seat nut when you take the passenger pad off.

i hear ya.

thankfully don't have that problem anymore, girlfriend rides her own.

for those that want to keep the options open, welding a nut on the inside of the fender is the cleanest way to go about it.

my wife used to ride her own.... i hated it! sold all 4 of her bikes... just to dangerous... guys would slow down to check out a hot chick riding and not even realize they where pulling into our lane! she still rides trail and quads... and on occasion will take out one of my cafe's... but i am glad she is not riding anymore, i could not relax and enjoy the ride. i can not tell you how many boots i put into doors

Is there a vendor who sells these fenders completely shaved and painted?

You sell them Joe?

Too bad, as shipping back and forth is no option for me (Europe) and I even don't have a superglide style fender...

Well life is cyclical, I guess....Here is a pic of my old DYNA , an '05 that is long gone, with the fender treatment:







Now, years later, I have sold the bagger, and ordered a new Street Bob through HD1 customization. The stock rear fender doesn't work for me, so I bought the fender as I mentioned above, and had Jeff at Crossroads Auto body here in Rapid City hook me up. Rubberized coated underneath, and gave me a beautiful coat of gloss black with UV clear all color sanded and buffed.....jsut like he idd 6 years ago in the pics before. So, I appreciate you guys re-inspiring me. Here are some pics of my new fender awaiting my bike arrival on 12 feb:
