Fender Bras

[onahog]

I v finished makin up a set of fender bras to fit my needs...They are made from a old truck winter front with the soft fuzzy on backside...
Velcro holds em in place , sticky to fender, sewn to bra...They need abit of good old sunshine n heat and should stretch out just perfect...Total cost, $2.00 for sticky velcro at dollar store, and an old winter front, plus some time to fab and sew...& a little crest from the private stash...LOL..Works for me!!!

One thing I would watch out for is the velcro unsticking in high temps.
I tried a couple velcro projects, one for my car and one for my Harley tourpac and in each case when it got up in the 90*'s the velcro glue came unglued and everything fell down.
Maybe different mfg's use different glues, but it's something to watch for.

Nice looking-motortrike esque looking. I used velcro on the top of my bra-just like you, sewn to the vinyl and sticky on the fender-has held up perfect in heat and windThumbUp

Mine held good also - for a couple years. Then the glue no longer held. I even bought 3M heavy duty outdoor double backed tape - same thing. If there is a glue backed tape that holds forever-I haven't found it yet.

What I did for my tourpac lid organizer was bolt it on using the 4 mounting bolts from the tourpac luggage rack. Now it won't fall down like all my previous organizers did with just the double backed tape from Harley.
