Yeah got it thank you . The fender one is wrong not your fault terry :thumb: just does not look right like the drawing states maybe with the German style lettering it would work but would not be right with yours or the looping style lettering I will centre up next time on the fender. :thumb: I spent ages after on google images and not many the same lol. But none like the 3 inch gap as the drawing shows ??) :think: . Yours would not fit on if you went to that guide :lol:
