Big Nick,I paint the fenders. As Fast E mentions, in order to get a match with the tank and side covers, this is really the only option for me.I normally use a stock (stainless) rear fender. These are available new from Andover but you can certainly work on what you have if its not to banged up. It is sanded to get an aggressive texture and then an epoxy primer before final finish. This has proven to work very well for adhesion. Stainless is a bit trickier to paint than mild steel but just requires a different approachOn a few machines I used the earlier style Chrome fender. It has a bit more 'wrap' and looks nice. Chrome has to be stripped though in order to get a good surface to paint overMatt
