Default HomeMade Fender Mod

This is a (somewhat of a) home made fender eliminator. First, I uninstalled the fender and turn signals. I had to cut the wires from the turnsignals to get off the fender. The, after the license plate holder, fender, turnsignals, and reflector and light was off, I disassembled the reflector and license light into its three pieces. Then, I put the smalls portion of the reflector piece, with the light in it, back on the bike(what I did wasto the 2 seperate pieces that hold the blinkers, I took a small screw it attactch the reflect/light piece to them. Then, I reinstalled the blinkers and wired all the lights back together. Then, I installed a hinge onto the light/reflector piece (on the bottom), and a piece of metal, that holds the license plate. Then, i drilled holes in the metal to apply the plate, and then I was done. Yes, it sounds kind of ghetto, but it didnt cost anything and I think that it looks pretty clean. Let me know what you guys think. Thanks
