found another free donor, and took the fender:
i not going to save the chrome
i think i saw someone talking about the weak brackets on those huffys, is this what you were talkin about?
deglossed the chrome then i hosed it down with some flat black
taped it up and went with some more of the satin paprika

the old mounts needed a change so i put them on the inside with these spikes as the new holding screws:
is was not fun, i had to try and drill the broken center bracket out to accomodate a new mounting screw and it exploded on me. i had to hammer it back into shape and then use a backing plate for some rigidity. finally got it to work, only my rear wheel needs to be trued, it rubs. man, it's a tight fit.

THAT...is very cool!
I love it! those rear spike/mounts are awesome!!!! I absolutly love it ,great fender conversion! do you think you will divide the 2 colors with a white pinned line to match the frame???? schweet job Yustin!!!! Pin-it !
hey thanks guys.
you know kev, I was just debating that issue all day. i'm kinda stuck with the two tone with no stripe but now i'm thinking yes, it would match better. I don't know, we'll see.
It'll look good either way..
That will be one heck of a long line to pull.. all be it ,the Fender edge is a nice Guide for the Pinkie Finger to Guide / Slide on when your pullin it! The Color Combo Black and Paprika on the bike is stunning!!!! I love it.... Pin-it !
I'm always afraid to use that color combo in anything because it brings Halloween to mind too easily. Don't know how you did this, but you pulled it off without having the "Halloween theme syndrome". That's a great looking bike with a fantastic paintjob. Congrats
