My kids were riding a four wheeler and clipped the rear fender and knocked the bike over. On the right side it is bent and the paint has flaked off. Would I be better off getting a replacement or maybe trying my luck at a body shop? It is a factory fender, black with stripes

 

Try ebay, you have a good chance of finding a black fender that you can just bolt on.

 

all fatboys have a rear fender tip bang..adds to the look

 

LMAO this is the truth. Mine has a paint chip rite where the bolt for the rear strut bolts, my buddies is chipped on the boot lip. Hmmm

I would check ebay also.

 

Very repairable. No body shop will work in it still on the bike. Take it off and make a couple stops to your local body shops and get a few quotes.

 

I have an 2002 Fat Boy fender. It's not black but it has no dents. I'll sell it cheap.

 

Is it a museum piece or a motorcycle?

 

Careful, though, bondo is likely to vibrate right off the fender...

 

 

really ? heading out to garage to check mine..
