Thanks for the input all, I see the problem with just ovalling out the holes now.. never thought of it like that but it would like kinda goofy. On average whats a new front fender that would fit the rocker run?

I guess it is probably easiest to just pull the rear fender off to relocate the plate, that way i can do a far neater job of removing the old wiring and rerouting. May even drop it off to get airbrushed at the same time, now to pick out a picutre.

There seems to be infinite projects to perform which just adds to the fun but drains the funds :-/

 

Heartland front fender costs around $300
