I would love it if I was in a position to make some more for you guys but I am really not. Feel free to use the design as a springboard for better ones of your own though. There's your answer, soccer [/b]Hah! This happens a lot. What is the OD of the tubing and the thickness? And how exactly id you mount it to the Shrock? am a littleconfused with the picture. It kind of looks riveted. You are riveting.

Soccer...slow down...read all the words, the 1/4 bolts not rivets, the selling of them...its all spelled out. :p I like the way it looks open...covering it, while making it NJ legal perhaps, would not preserve the look, it would just look like an attempt to clone a flat fender conversion.

I know that he used bolts, but it looks like it is riveted on there. I read through it just looks riveted and tack welded on there. Yes it looks good open.
