I think the fluted fenders look the best, but they scratch pretty easily and they really show on them. So what did I do? I bought another set of the Honjo fluted fenders...
Man, am I nervous about doing it. I'm in no rush to get them on, even though I really want to see them on. Maybe it would be worth coating them in helicopter tape or something to minimize scratches, that might look strange.
