Great work!
All great ideas for how to do the bead. Another way similar to what you did would be to use a small "Hot Dog Die" underneath and 2 doggies on top. Fred26t

Jeff, what material is your upper die made from?

It's a block of polypropylene. I was worried the corners would roll over before I chased the entire length. It actually held up pretty well. Here's a bit more of the fender. Thanks again for all the suggestions! I'm really happy with the way it came out.

Thanks for the comments. Here it is on the bike.
Any tricks for doing a nice even brushed finish on the aluminum?

Fantastic looking bike. Great original thinking. Its a pity we need to hang appendages like number plates off these things as they never fit with the lines of the bike
