CHEAP CB72/77 FENDER????????????????????

Post by LOUD MOUSE » Thu Nov 01, 2007 10:13 am

Check out this CHEAP (junk) front fender. They even have the guts to put a HONDA part number for it.
Add up the cost for part and shipping (US $$$$). I can only imagine how much this actually cost to make. .....................lm

Ewww, and in that one pic where they show a close up view of the chrome all you see it pitting.

Quite an aweful peice of work if you ask me.

did Honda ever use pan head slotted screws to attach fender braces? I thought they were all riveted.

Looks to me like a (somewhat amateurish) re-chrome job.

Rechromed,(poorly) Refitted, (with what's available, hey, I had to MAKE my own rivets, you can't just buy them!) and custom engraved!
For that price I guess you have to really want a CUSTOM fender!
