thats photoshopped...you can tell because everything that was red on it is now lime green

that picture is photoshopped, but there is a company www.maier-mfg.com that makes plastic, i'm sure fullbore might have a green as well www.fullboreinnovations.com but i'm not sure on that

they should sell them like that. and do other colors too.

it would cost too much for them. But maier has the green and alot of other colors. just go there.

This is my setup for the 2003 12hrs of America -- needed headlights, so I also have a stock style front end

Man that is one nice 400 you have there. I notice in all 3 pictures you are running differnt front shocks. Which ones did you like the most?? Question is I just got some elkas and I am waiting on my a-arms and just want to know how they are.

sweet 400. are those maier?

[86atc250r]

Thanks guys...

Yes, those are Maier fenders - the newer shiny style.

Shocks --- Favorites? Well, the ones in the TT setup pictures are some that Lazarus at GT Thunder custom built for me & they work great in cross country and I also use them for lowering my quad to TT height (it's a compromise setup, but still works pretty well).

I've also got a longtravel setup (the ones in the 12hr pic) --- they work pretty well also, but I bought them used & they're not setup for me, so with a little setup work, I'm sure they'd be amazing - they work pretty well as they sit.

Elkas -- those were one of the early sets of Elka shocks, the fronts worked OK, but I was never really happy with them. Ended up selling them. I think the shocks they sell today are much better than the ones in the top picture.

where did you get those plastics? i was looking online but couldnt find the lime green plastics

[86atc250r]

I got them directly from Maier- was a sponsor deal.

Nice 400 86atc250r. Green rocks! What type of rims are you running, in the picture of the 400 in the garage. They look sweet.

Thanks...

Fronts are stock

Rears are OMF "Reinforced Race" wheels
