Dude that looks awesome! The best thing about painted fenders is they are much better for things like mud sucking out the moisture of the black plastic fenders. We were constantly battling that problem and well as sun aging at least the painted fenders can be waxed which help out a bit.

Thanks for the help guys I think I'm going to cut my flat black fenders first and save my painted fenders in case I make a mistake!

Here is an attached pic of how the amber flasher is mounted, I hope it helps. When I get back from Afghanistan I am going to see about mounting some type of led up under the fender flare.
