I've been wanting to move my plate for a while, and I finally did it last night. I grabbed a piece of scrap sheet metal that was a good thickness from were I worked, brought it home and started working on it. Actually it was pretty easy, and was done the cutting and shapping in about an hour. Then I had to paint it and let it dry overnight. I just got done mounting it up this morning.

Now I just need to grab some LED plate bolt lights on Ebay for $25, and pick up a cheap chrome license plate frame, and it will be all finished up for about $35 in parts and about 2 hours of work.
Still need to figure out how to dress up the stock plate mount/tourpac support. I took that bracket off also, trimmed it down on the bottom to clean it up a bit, and now I'm thinking the HD skull medallion that is like 3"x4" in size, and some chrome bolt covers for the mounting bolts.

I like it alot, I saw a bunch of people checking it out today at the HD dealer we stopped at on a ride. It's not something you see on a bagger............so it grabs attention.
