NTL, If you're close to a store that's better than online, You can actually look at the Items as well as have a real person to help you find what you want and show you different Ideas. Good Luck!

Thanks for the suggestion Bake.   There is a store located close to me and I will check this option out.  The concho seems more attractive than the homedepot bolts I was considering.....

Cheers

NTL, Check out "Tandy Leather" they have some great Concho backs that are threaded and come with a screw, They'll attach to the inside of the fender giving the leather more surface support, Then you only need a small stainless washer along with the screw for the outside of the fender. Here's a link to a concho with screw post. http://www.tandyleatherfactory.com/en-usd/home/department/hardware/7400-241.aspx

They also have some really nice conchos here's a few pics of the ones I put on my fenders, "Stone Mountain Half Dollars" (cause I know the guys love to look at the pics... Chilli, RatMan, Troll, Marshall, DC, Drift1, Reo, Bravo, Chief... ) lol

Hi everyone

Just received a matching set of mudflaps from Osprey.... They match my seat and bags.   They are neat thick leather ones but they don't have any holes pre arranged for installation.  Any thoughts on install?   I was thinking of making a template of cardboard / paper prior to drilling.  What's it like to drill in the fender?   Thinking of using small stainless steel acorn bolts with washers on front and back......  Not sure of the size of bolt.

Thanks for any help
