Exhaust and Tail Light upgrade

[Mkvpr]

My first upgrades to the bike since I bought it over a year ago. I spent countless hours looking at exhaust and took many of the forums recommendations and finally settled on the Coffman Shorty w/ gold tip. Easy install, and took all of 5 min. Then the more I looked at the rear of my bike, I couldn't stop thinking how stupid that fender looked. So i shopped around and found a rear tail light w/ sequential blinkers to completely eleminate the rear fender. During the day the light is not very bright untill you brake and it flashes 3 times before staying solid. The blinkers are built into the light and flash like a Mustangs turn light, except its yellow. Now I need to find a way for the license plate to stay on with out spending 100+ on a mount. If the community has any answers that would be great.

I took a sheet of aluminum that I cut with tin snips and spray painted black. I bent it into basically a bracket and mounted it to the two rear bolts of the stock fender (closer to the front of the bike). I then used led bolt lights from ebay for like 7 bucks and filled the other two holes with the lights and illuminate my plate. I crimped on a bullet connector onto the led wires so the light just plugged into the old registration plate light. Has worked perfect for a couple years now. Whatever you do save your on the 100+ dollar ones and come up with something on your own. Mine cost about 10 bucks and 20 minutes to make.

Previous owner of my bike bought a R&G fender eliminator. They aren't cheap but bolt up nicely. He then got a integrated tail lamp for it and cut off the R&G's blinker lamp tabs which were no longer needed.
I didn't like the way the fender eliminator tag holder was way at the very back. I felt it took away from the swooped up pointed high tail. So, being the stock 4 bolts which mount the R&G price are symmetrical, I turned it around. Remounted the LED tag lamp, and RE-bent the angle. Now it sits further in. I think it makes the tail look better.
However, I still thinking about getting rid of the R&G, making or buying a generic tag holder and putting it even further towards the rear shock area
Bottom line, it's about taste, fab or mod or choke up some coin for a fitted price.

In pic above u can see what the R&G looks like when turned around as I described above post.

thank you for the ideas. For now I just took some zip ties and ran them through the previous mounting holes from the tail lights, then bent the plate outwards. Seems to work for now.
