Since my rear fender was pushed in in an accident, (tail light obliterated) but wiring and turn signals in tact, I was thinking of bobbing it, where the crease is. Does anyone have any good ideas for a new kind of tail light location or install, and maybe some smaller turn signals? any thoughts would be appreciated................ [image][/image]

actually I mean the crease about 4 inches above the tag plate, it won't leave much room for a tail light or tag light, maybe I should just buy a new fender?

Boy,thats a tuff one if you cut it will to short and be distorted maybe.I have a taillight and plate holder with turnsignals if you buy a new fender.If buy a new fender buy painted by Triumph because you will have a hard time buying paint to match.

You might try Radiantz Flex LED strips. You can get them in pre cut lengths, or you can have custom strips made with turn signals and all that in the same tube. Pretty cool if you don't mind mounting your plate elsewhere.

I opted for a replica Triumph old style, I like it with bullet indicators
