I made some front turn signals for my fat chizeled apes out of some polycarbonate tubing, some t10/194 bulb sockets, and some ultra bright LED bulbs. I still may tint the polycarbonate to blend better. I still haven't wired them yet and sorry for the dirty pics, but I just got back from a quick 1,000 mile ride last weekend.

That's pretty damn cool. And I only mean this next comment as a constructive opinion regarding the cables... Would look better if they were hidden. But something tells me you have plans in the works for it (;

They wont be completely hidden because the bends are just too tight, but I am just waiting on some custom length to get them exactly how I want them and clean them up quite a bit. The throttle cables and brake line will appear as one opposite the clutch and both sides will have the same curvature to be symmetrical. I hate the way they look now, this was purely function over form until I got the new cables.
I got my Softail a girlfriend and I pulled it right in the garage and parked her right next to its new mate! My Softail no longer has to sit out there in the garage alone any more.

Lookin at your bike and seeing all you've done so far, I expected you to be the type who could probably never quit modding. Though function should always take pryority as you say
