Sweet!!!!!!!!! Now all I have to do is decide what I want more: a new bike or the wings.
 
I would rather go for a full bumper for a couple more bucks than the wings... if they were a significantly cheaper alternative to a full bumper than I would pull the trigger but at this price id rather pony up the extra cheese and go slee.
 
That's a lot of extra cheese, but Slee's quality is top notch. From what I can see and have read the Hefty Fab Wings are top notch as well, the extra expense of finishing them may be what swings my decision though. At this I'm trying to decide as I am not carrying a spare and cannot in the OEM location.
 
Yeah, I can't wait :)

Any plans on remounting your license plate?

i'm thinking about mounting mine somewhere on the bottom of the cooler carrier and running a coiled jumper wire from the trailer plug for a plate light :hhmm:

Already been done:

Chris set it up for me. Check with him to find out if he can add it to yours.

I was over there yesterday and they were working on your wings. Pretty sure they're planning on completing them this coming week.

Good Luck! :steer:

Looks good :)

That's where I plan on putting mine as well, but I still have to plan out the cooler carrier as I'm getting the passenger side with a bare swing :hhmm:

How did you run your plate light wiring?

SWEET!!

I didn't even think they started it yet :)

Just curious, but are they building around a jig or another Cruiser?

Wiring run from the marker light on the passenger rear fender.

I was probably wrong on the timing of them completing the bumper (sorry if I got your hopes up). Whatever they quoted you originally is probably still the case.

They use my cruiser from time-to-time just to ensure that they have everything correct before sending out a set of wings. Most (if not all) of the measurements are in their computer already.

That's ok.

I'm just hoping I get them before I leave for home (NYC) in a few weeks :cool:

Do you have any photos of the spring latches? that keep them in the open position?

Little update:

Not sure how I feel about the inner locking pin yet, but I'm sure it works just fine...

Feel good about it. It's so simple it can't fail. When really looking at the design of these wings, this is a great solution to securing the arms. My biggest worry with mine so far has been losing the pin. This method of keeping it open eliminates that possibility. There's also very little that could go wrong with it.

Looks good. I'm waiting for my wings. They should be here after x-mas! I'm getting the drivers side tire carrier, hoops and tring to decide what (if anything) I should put on the passenger side. I don't need a ladder. I was thinking a jerry can holder, but it would have to have a locking holder.

anyone have a suggestion???? Trying to be different.

I was thinking a idea would be put a back up/flood/work light somewhere on it. It would be kinda silly to dedicate a swing away just for that though.
 
I have the same rust spot as your rear hatch! Always thought is was due to a previous injury. Nice bumper.

Sounds good :cool:

If you can, please remind Chris to send some detailed pix of the whole setup before packaging....

I know he was slammed this whole time and I just want to make sure everything I ordered was done before it gets shipped off...
