Default Tail signals Mod

Does anyone recommend a economical mod to move the rear signals up.
I was looking at some flush mount signals on flea bay.
The goal is to remove the HUGE mud flap on my old girl for a modern look.

Doesn't really move the signals up much, but it does lose the flap. And don't ask, I bought it this way.

Buy a new tail light from Mexico - they have signals built in.
I chopped my mudflap level with my number plate. Looks better, but you'll never make a swallow out of a snowgoose

im gonna make an LED integrated tail (w/signals) over the winter.

seems like the best plan of attack since the floppy turn signals are lame-tastic.

I like your under tray. Looks like it tidys up the back and looks modern.

Mexican CBR's come with built in signal lights in the main tail light.
I'll see if I can find some of the pics of Luis's bike.............

The decals translate, loosely, to "Harleys suck". Actually, they translate to Honda.
