Miner got trashed this apst wk end racing, I am looking for a new bumper and was thinking of getting a blingstar this time. I dont want the typical AC bumper look, I want something a little different.

What would look good with my quad though?? Can I get some ideas?

I dont know QJ blingstars are getting played out. I like the look of my AC Stadium bumper because not a lot of peiple have em anymore. Well heres a pic of my ac stadium on my 400 you can judge for yourself. http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v367/250ex3/100_2464.jpg

QuadJunkies
07-21-2005, 11:29 AM

QuadJunkies
07-21-2005, 11:57 AM

HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!! :eek: thats SAWEET!! would look good anodized I bet too!!!!!! :cool: I think my minds already made up! thanks again for doing that for me. ;)

Maybe sometime when I have some free time, you can explain the photshop a little to me so I can do my own ;)

07-22-2005, 01:09 AM
Ok. I just noticed something........ They are only avail. for the 450's??? :confused: :mad: anyone know if they will mount up? :( I hope so or Im back to square one .....:ermm:

Pvt. Maggot
07-22-2005, 01:10 AM
No problem. Anytime you wanna learn i'll give you as much info as I can :) I agree. That bumper does look sweet. And will def look good with fullbore! :devil:

Pvt. Maggot
07-22-2005, 01:10 AM
Your still set! :) No worries. 450r's and 400ex's use the same bumper. No difference. :)

I don't know how the other blingstar bumpers are, but my iron cross one is a really beefy bumper. I was surprised when I first got it.

Vince, thanks for posting that pic, Ive never seen that bumper mounted up yet

Fontmaster, I actually was going to give it this look at one time, still undecided

and would like to add this too if it were avail for my quad! :blah: The cross would have been anodized/or PC'd Orange as well . Just thoughts and ideas, but I am pretty stuck on the BLingstar bumpers so far.. Glad to hear the bumpers have not changed and fit the Ex too!

You should really go with the V shape blingstar, I dont think I have seen one on a quad yet.

wait till you see the new natalie bumper on a quad first IT IS ABSOLUTELY way to big there is a pic of it on a replica natalie 450r they tested in Quad rider magazine it goes all teh way to the fenders (height wise and width wise) dont get it before you see it on a quad becasue you might not liek what you get


btw the tags are pretty beefy and cobra has a different looking front bumper with no center and it is "bling" shiney

I dont think we get Quad Rider Mag around here for me to look at ....:confused:

Im gonna call Blingstar and get the dimentions FIRST before ordering... ;)

QuadJunkies
07-29-2005, 11:14 AM
OK.. you all be the Judge... Do you think it looks too big??? Its longer than I thought :ermm: I still like it, but I think Ill still call blingstar first to get exact measurements.

QuadJunkies
07-29-2005, 11:14 AM
To me it looks good until.....

One last idea... CT TT racing bumper, I like it because not many ppl have them, and its like .01 lbs. Also note its polished aluminum, so you can polish the crap out of it, I've been lazy with mine hah.-darren

After looking at the last picture..It's freaking Huge. Also I think as soon as you start going thru the Big Dip whoops the bottom end will hit and you never know what could happend next.;)
