Problem now is I don't really care for the angle of the rear fender. I played with a cardboard mockup today to see if I could design a new set of mud flaps that would take care of that issue without heading for body work and paint. 
Might have it, I'll talk to the upholsterer who is making a new cover for my seat and see what we can come up with. Planning on a variegated tan/brown seat with cream trim, then cream mud flaps with tan/brown fringe.
Found grips that will work better with my small hands, and also found some cool ends for the grips to continue her Armed and Dangerous theme. 
Hee hee...

Hubby's been playing with leather, and Blue is looking quite well after the addition of some home-made mud flaps, tool bag and floor board fringe. His Singh seat arrived and was installed without drama lol. The idea of an old Indian Feather-Face horn was intriguing to him, so he fabricated one from a pair of Hella horns he found at Pep Boys. The other one of the pair is mounted in the right side box. He found a used light bar from a Triumph and adapted it to fit Blue, repositioned the turn signals, and changed the indicator lenses from amber to clear. Additional 'just for looks' fuel, oil and reserve-pull caps were added to the tanks to continue the 'old school' illusion.
