    Yeah mines lower than stock. I could raise it 0.75" so I'll do that to give me the best chance. Not looking to attach it to the headboard with my future plans.

    Yeah theyre just aluminium fenders. After making them, their price isnt that crazy. A sheet of 5052 is around $300 here and if I were to do a bunch of these it would probably be 4-6 hrs a set

    Getting most of the deck on feels good. Made a little drill guide at work to drill the hole at the proper distance from the channel for the weld nut.

    Now I gotta decide what to do with the front section. I am thinking two separate panels. A small one to be able to take off and access the fuel fill lines and a bigger one covering the rest.
