ok so got my bumperettes or fender stays. Part numbers 14091E and D, now the 99's did not come with the mounting brackets and I know that someone has put them on with zap straps or wire ties, but like normal I can not find them again, and I ma being forced to go to Sudbury to watch my nephew play in a college soccer game this afternoon so if some kind soul does now were this is could you please post that link again.....I will book mark it this time........any one but GB because he will hold this over my head forever.......thanks......
Here it is: http://www.vulcandrifterriders.com/bumpercover.html
Btw: I think I'm gonna do it to my Bike, too, but I'm still wonderin' if it would be nicer to leave those bumperettes chromed instead of black paintin' them... :-\
Because I have a 99 and want to maintain the black out look I am going to go with the gloss black paint. might even fill the holes with body fill to make them gloss black too rather then the plastic look we shall think that one over, will start the wet sanding soon just for something to do.
Thanks.....

Is their plastic look so much visible? In that case, I have to reconsider my plan (I've got a 99 too, but mine has got the saddle's handrail chromed so I thought it could have been a nice "pendant" with those bumperettes. See pic below).
What kind of body fill do you think is stronger enough to withstand the stresses of the bike ridin'?
Depends on the looks you are after and they look really nice in the chrome version, just I am not into chrome. So I decided to go with the black look, perhaps the chrome will pop on your ride because you have some chrome already. As for body fill anything will do as there is no stress and no banging supposed to be applied to the bumperettes.
