Front Fender Trim
Hey guys,
Another post had me thinking about front fender trim again, rather than hijacking it I'll start a new post.
I have an 07 FLHTCU with a lowered front fender and the bumper removed. I would like to replace the lower trim with something different. With the fender lowered, I don't really need the added length of the "skirt" I like the lower small trim on the Softail Deluxe, and wonder if it would fit on the bottom of my Ultra front fender? If not, is there an after market part that would fit?

Hog Yild, I like the look of the Deluxe and think it would cool on your bike. But I have a question. I put a clean SG fender on my RK, how did you lower your fender? Might look cool for my bike. Sorry to change the subject, kind of.

HY, I've seen the Deluxe rear fender chrome trim installed on a SG fender and it looked good. Check the screw holes' locations for height above the bottom edge of your fender, and the distance of the most forward screw hole to the fender's front edge. You may find that the holes, particularly the forward one (because of the Deluxe's taper at the front), won't be covered by the Deluxe trim piece.
Good luck with your project.

Most of the plate is hidden when mounted on the bike, I bought some matching touch up paint and clear coat in spray cans and painted the plates. I didn't use the spacers and small round headed screws that attach the plates top the fenders. I made some stainless steel spacers and polished them to a mirror finish. And the screws, I bought some stainless steel replacements and polished the heads too.
