I think this would be cool on this bike, giving it a lowered "Shop" look

Give it the KOTA look....
hey.... that is a good idea! could i do it with forks that can't be used though? i hate to accidentally ruin a good pair of forks, and, if i were to do this would i have to repaint the forks? i don't want to paint anything on this bike if i can.

the wrong color! i didn't want to paint anything on this bike. other than that that is what i want.
I drew up what i would like it to look like in the end.
i obviously am a master artist. feel free to leave suggestions.

You use the same version of CAD software that I do.
My Dad took a pair of junk forks to be bent today. (he works at a factory with benders and lasers and all kinds of awesome stuff) he isn't lowering it dramatically, just to give it a more aggressive look. just wondering, will a regular fender still fit on it?
ok we didn't get i bent but we will make our own jig to do it. what is the best jig to do that?
ok i have a choice here and i don't know witch one to do. white Schwinn rims, or a chrome 3 speed. witch one should i use?

my Dad and i ground off every other tooth on the wheel so it is skip tooth.
then we modified a blinker from a car. (we don't know what it came off of) we won't be using this fender
then we accidently broke the bottom off trying to fit it on the fender, but it made this cool thing:
we are gonna but a reflector inside that opening. we will also make a mount on it to put on a bike license plate.
