As some of you know, my quad was stolen last November. The police recovered it after some meth heads were riding it down Wilcox in Sierra vista.
Thank goodness I had full coverage on the bike. I was able to put most of it back to what it was or better.
The quad was painted blue, then the paint was sanded off for some reason. I had to replace all the plastic and some other parts.
I still have some other things left to do. Like paint the front bumper and fix the kill switch on the controls. These are just minor things at this time.
So with out further ado, here it is so far.

yep. Like i said, they painted it and sanded it off. so it pretty much ruined the shine on the plastic. and there was a lot of over spray.

more paint and crap. The theives managed to hot wire the quad. They used speaker wire to do the job. Theses guys knew what they were doing.

Yep, the total damage to my quad was over $2,500.00, (that's dealer cost and labor.) So I turn that into the insurance company and I did a lot of shopping around to get the parts listed on the estamate. After that I order some stuff off of Ebay.
As far as labor, my buddy and I worked on the quad for about 5 weekends strait. We didn't get much time, a few hours here and there. But I still have a lot to do.

I'm just glad I was able to get it back and make it a little better than it was before.
