Nope, and I think this may be easier and cheaper than I thought. Got the set of lights for $20 at Advance. I'll get the metal like I used for my tag bracket (super cheap) I've priced turn signals for under $20.

Gotta make a bar end mirror, too.

I'm gonna put the stock tail section back on and go naked on the front. The tailsection is a piece of cake. It's the front that takes so long. I hope to do a TD per month and don't feel like changing back and forth. Plus, I don't care what it looks like on the streets. I'm more into performance than looks these days.

Want to be able to cruise around legal with minimal effort

Not really. Slider and exhaust took the brunt of it. Nothing worth fixing.

The mock up. Got the lights wired and the plate is zip tied to the bracket. A LOT of the metal showing will be trimmed and blacked. Took a spin around the block, and the lights are gonna be great.
