Can it be done?

All this talk about bobbers. What I want to know is, has anyone ever tried to put on a larger 40s style FRONT fender on a rebel? The kind of fender on a Indian or Softail bike.

I recall seeing a skirted front fender on one of those Chinese knock off bikes. With the rest of it sorta bagged it looked halfway decent... I had given thought to putting on a larger front tire and a skirted fender. I personally think a skinny tire wouldn't look right in a full fender.
