Is the only difference between the two just a matter of holes? The reason I'm asking is because I know where a 54 is at that has some decent front fenders and I'd like to put them on my 52'. Any help would be greatly appreciated. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2001 Posts: 439 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Apr 2001 Posts: 439 | I beleive there is a flat spot on the fender.

So i'd say yea.. if you don't mind doing a little body work to patch the holes, it outta work.
an idea is only stupid if you think about it rationally.
