I dont know about replacing the fender badges probably could with some modification. But i got these from www.billetandacrylic.com Their stuff is awesome quality and really looks good. I stuck a set of these Ligthning bolts on the inside of my doors behind the handles on the black part of the door. I like them alot and look good with my billet switches. Also got on order the harley chrome door handles and seat switches and levers.

There you go.

They are exterior or interior pieces but not made to directly replace the fender badges.

Tom Hingle at billetandacrylic.com can custom make anything you want. Send him an email.

No they can go anywhere inside or out. The reason why i said about the fender is because when you take off the fender emblems there are gonna be 2 holes in your fender because 2 pegs that come out the back of the emblems. The Billet lightning bolts dont come that way so you might have to mod them or like Tim said just ask Tom Hingle there hes awesome and can make you anything. I got a set of his billet side steps with lightning bolts coming.

I am was the first to get the lightning bolts from Tom, me and a friend of mine came up with the idea and contacted him, told him what I was looking for. It was origially just a grill emblem, but it looked really nice so I put one on each doorpanel. I sent him one of my smooth steps and he used it as a model for the step inserts, so I guess I got the first of those. His work is excellent.

Thats kick ***. Can you post a pic of the side steps?

Also, the billet grill with the lightning bolt across the front of it is just a reg billet grill and you stuck that on? I was under the impression they came that way from Godfather Customs..

Thanks.

Does anyone know how long and tall the bolts have to be to cover up the holes on the fender?

I think I gave about $175 plus shipping. I have had them on for over a year and they look just as good now, no cracks.

No, that was raw. I had a local body shop work them over and paint them. Another $100 for me.
