I would not weld the fender struts ,the fender sees a lot of vibration and I think the welds would crack and fail ,It would be better to follow the standard way ,and bolt them on . What would you do if a weld broke on the road? If a bolt was lost it could be replaced with a plastic wire tie for a temporary fix, or you could carry a spare in a tool kit.
I see where you are going. But it has to be attached on the outside of the fender as theres no room enough on the inside.
I will be harder to make it look good. A TIG weld would look so smooth
I havent decided on the shape of the struts. Flat, round, rectangular, prism, hex etc.
I have made up my mind about the turn signals. I will do my own design inspired by the ones on the photo. I like the minimalistic approach.
