[QUOTE="Bandit Bill, post: 61429, member: 1741"] Well looky looky what i got here for $20.00 at Princess Auto (equivelant of Pep-Boys in USA i think) .. Spent an hour this morning looking online for a link to a commercially available tire hugger for the CT70 - all i could find was vague references to one available for the ZB50. If anyone knows of one, shoot me a link please. Otherwise, I picked this ABS trailer fender up from Princess Auto. Width wise, dimensionally, it's perfect. 7" across. Curvature is also within acceptable parameters. It will require extremely careful cutting down, trimming and profiling before it'll even be considered workeable, but i'm thinking i've got about a 50% chance of coming up with something workeable and presentable for a tire hugger with fabricated bracketry, in lieu of the stock fender setup for the CT70. All dependant on whether i can paint it with an ABS friendly paint. I'm not going to use it if at first flex, it sheds the coat of paint. Yes. Obviously that's me in the reflection, trying to keep my feet out of the photos :p [/QUOTE]
