Fender Eliminator Kits UK
Hi Folks,
im the proud owner of an 09 Thruxton and i'm going to be removing the rear mudguard and relocating the turn signals soon.
Im aware of the BC, NewBonn FEKs but im wondering if any UK (im in surrey) Thruxton or Bonnie owners know of a UK firm that do similar kits ??
I know there is N Hydes, but i like the whole plug and play aspect of these kits. Although i have considered patching it together myself from different accessories suppliers and making my own seat protector.
One thing is do the kits mentioned fit dealer UK license plates ok ?

If you had access to some sheet aluminum , a cutter and a tail light / blinker combo of your liking you can easily make one . I have a B/C FEK which if I had a cutter for aluminum I could of easily made it with a few hours and a six pack .

Cheers guys all very helpful.
Ventura do ou have a rear shot of your thruxton at all ?
The indicators look good did are they kellermans and they come from mototwin ?
Have you got matching indicators on the front end ?
I take it you had to splice the lights into the loom or did they come plug in play ?

The indicators I just bought from a high-street motorcycle factors.
Nothing fancy, but do the trick!
Same as those on the front.

The wiring took a little splicing in, but nothing too difficult.
