Just bought a 2020 Goblin... Excited to see it become mine

[Stickerdick]

Got my front fenders installed with special "help" from Sasquatch. I could not figure out why my brackets would not work correctly, then I checked into my wheel spacers which did change how the wheels and tires lined up with the fenders, so test drove them and they stayed on up to 100mph, small amount of vibration, but not terrible. The rear fenders are going to need to be widened about 1.5" and I'll need to change the small spacer included with the mounting kit to work with the setup I have.View attachment 56753View attachment 56754View attachment 56755View attachment 56756View attachment 56757View attachment 56754View attachment 56755View attachment 56756View attachment 56755View attachment 56756View attachment 56757View attachment 56753

Rear brackets are being built to work with coilovers, got some grinding and shaping along with extra bracing to make sure the fenders will be stable.

 

[Stickerdick]

Rear fenders are going to need to be wider than stock by about 1.5", but the bracket system we have created is going to work I think?

I've seen where some of you talked about tilting the windshield back to come closer to aligning with the front bars, are you just bending the mounting tabs on the windshield bracket that holds the plexi-glass?

 

[Desert Sasqwatch]

Yes, but it's more than just bending the tabs. I added you to an IM that I put together for @David and @WA08TC who were asking for the specifics. This information, plus posts in my build log should provide the information needed to successfully lay the windshield back.

My bracket is powdered. Cracking?

Thank You very much

So my fiberglass guy picked up the rear fenders this morning, he will widen them 1.5" and I'll continue to fabricate my rear brackets and make due with the front brackets for now, I will make totally new ones very soon for the front, because of my wheel spacers, it is throwing off the whole "Fung sway" of the look.... but no worries, I'll make it work. gonna wrap the fenders in Black carbon fiber for now, they will eventually get painted the purple to match the body.

That's Great... I appreciate the add.

Does the fender set come with spacers to adjust where they sit relative to the tire? Where is the adjustability? I ask because it cant be a one size fits all wheel offsets deal.

 

[Desert Sasqwatch]

There are 3 different fender sets available: standard which is 205 width tires front and rear, staggered which is 205 width tires front and 245 tires rear, and wide which is 245 width tires front and rear. These kits have been sold out for a while. Not one size fits all, as wheel offset, use of wheel spacers and actual tire size will affect how the fenders will fit. It is up to the builder to determine how to align and space the mount brackets to line up the fenders with the wheels/tires being used.

Personally, I would have like to had a staggered 245 - 275 fender set. I would definitely have purchased that one if it was available.

Thanks ChatGPT.

I've used some spacers, but my setup is staggered, so I had to improvise, the fenders are good quality though and I like the way they fit overall .. I'm going to have to make new front brackets because of my setup, and just because I prefer a more hidden bracket

 

[Stickerdick]

I think the carbon fiber wrap turned out well, I'm not happy about using 2" spacers, but they will do for now until I make new front brackets

 

[Stickerdick]

We did widened the rear fenders 1.5" to make them work with the rear spacing and slightly larger tires

 

[Desert Sasqwatch]

Those rear fenders turned out nice!

I am pleased so far
