I was thinking about getting black plastic for my 400EX, are scratches that noticable. do you guys recommend a different color or should i just stick with red.

While a black quad looks awfully nice with clean, unscratched plastic, the black plastic will make scratches stand out alot more than most colors. If you want something different than red I like Gabe's 400ex with the new Maier shiny bright green plastic - it looks sweet. Or buy some new OEM Honda red or yellow plastic and a OEM Honda black 400ex seat cover. In my opinion the black seat cover with the red plastic looks great. Either way you go you are really going to need a new black seat cover unless you buy red plastic, because a read seat cover and yellow, green, blue, etc. plastic looks pretty bad.

your right probably stick with red. Is the oem better that mejier or is their a slight difference in color, shade, or price?

If you want red - stick with OEM. Like Kenny said, it is often the best quality and fit. And for the 400ex OEM plastic is dirt cheap (I paid $120 for the front and rear fenders shipped to my door).

wow, I don't know what color to get know. Does anyone have a picture of a grey 400EX. For some reason I don't think grey will go, but hey prove me wrong.
