I'm 99% sure that Grant aka Blueverclear used the DC brackets with the BYOB fender and didn't have any issues.

I think he had to do some trimming on the fender to get everything to fit.

Hopefully he'll see this and chime in.

1040, it definitely does fit together. No matter what brackets you use I believe you will have to trim a bit. I think the softail brackets fit a little better with the byob fender but the dchopper brackets look much better to me and are worth the extra effort.

I had to cut a triangle out of the top of the filler panel to clear the very top of the dchopper brackets which wasn't a big deal at all. No matter what, you will need to trim a little bit off of the sides of the filler panels to get the gap correct between the panels and bags depending on which lights you use. You will also have to drill your own holes in the fender depending on which ones you are going to use for mounting to the original subframe.

Hope this helps

Grant
