Has anyone had any experience with Huge Industries and their products? I had a horrible time eith their Fender Kit for the X1 and just sent an email to them itemizing the issues. I will detail them here later. Just wanted to know if any of my fellow Buellers have been through what I have. My next post will hinge on Huge Industries' response. Either way I'll still detail the installation.

Never had any dealings with them, their site doesn't show very well what they're offering for the X1. I have an aluminum undertray for my X1 from Trojan Horse. It cleaned up the tail section as shown on HI website. I had no problem with this from Trojan Horse. Other than enlarging the mounting holes a bit and filing of the weld seams, 15 min work, the fit was just right. PN is BA PS001, it is a little pricey, though.

This Kit is HORRIBLE !!!

I cannot emphasise that enough.
If it cost $50 bucks I might feel different.

but at $180 I am pissed. I had to drill and trim almost every piece. Nothing lined up and I had to go to the hardware store for extra bolts.

The final kick in the nuts was the front signals not working. They kept shorting out as I tightend the headlight bolts (weird). The stockers are plastic 2 wire( as you all know) but the replacement from Huge Industries are metal 3 wire.

I'm currently lost on this project. I have emailed Mark the owner and he has said that 100+ kits have been sold with no complaints. I cannot see how that is true.

Anybody who knows ANYONE who bought one of these kits, please post here. I want to hear from you.

Joe, why are you messing with the headlight if you bought a fender kit????????

I bought the Banke fender eliminator & it kicks ass. Looks great, fits great. Only pain was reinstalling the bolts for the tailight assembly. You need real skinny long fingers to do it, or get creative with your socket set & some well placed tape:)

Hello all,
Does any one know who makes a decent fender eliminator kit for under 200$. I have looked all over the net and every one that I like is 300$ or more
