Turning my softail into a bobber

Ill post more pics along the way but I've started to make a few big changes on the motorcycle this year. Right now it has 18" gimps from Nash, The exhaust I made from scratch, fenders are WCC and paint is House of Kolor candy apple red over gold flake with the white pinstipe. Here is what it looked like before the process:


My plans are dish the tank (which I've started) put a bobber fender on it with fender struts to the swingarm and cut those ugly looking strut horns thats holding the fender on there now. I will make a hard pan seat that I will cover in leather and tool something in it. Also make a different set of pipes cause its just fun to do. Finally paint the headlight housing black and eventually two tone my motor black and silver. Here is a pick of the tank so far. Sorry about the pictures I took them with my phone.
