How well do the maier plastics match stock in color?

[Woodsrider]

I have finally decided to replace my rear plastics. They have had it.
How well willl the maier color match the stock fronts?
I am too cheap to buy a whole set:D

Oem plastic is pretty cheap, like 60 buks for the front, and 50 something for the back? Im not sure, its around there tho. Check service honda.

[Woodsrider]

I know. I just don't want the OEM plastic because of the stupid warning lable space and rivet holes. the maier don't have those.

[Live2Ride300]

Oh ya, I hate those damn things.

if you get red....make sure to ask for fighting red...it will match

[Pappy]

i will ride without plastic before i ever get maier again. JMO

But kenny, you must relieze you had the old model plastic, it was crap, i hear the new one is much mo better.

[Pappy]

i dunno..like i said...JMO...but ive seen the new stuff also..i like the fit and finish of o.e.m...again folks...JMO

[Woodsrider]

:eek: I just looked at the cost difference between the two. for the difference of 50% I'll live with the holes and the space for the lable.

I guess I should of looked at the prices first.

I just got maier shiny race-cut for my 300ex, and they were at most half the cost of OEM. I think its strange that OEM 400ex plastic is so cheap... does anyone know why that is? is it a demand issue?

As far as my new plastic, it looks great. My seat and headlight look a little out of place now, they don't really match the new plastic, but I am happy!

Here is my bike, mostly stock, fun to ride around though.
I don't race or anything, so I guess that makes me a poser with my numberplate, but I don't really give a fu<k.

Nice Ride, What kind of front shocks are those? What kind of exaust?

[rcclark03]

Thanks for the compliment.
Works dual rates shocks.
Supertrapp exhaust, came on the bike new in '95, complete with the carb being re-jetted.
Any mod I have made has been out of necessity, I really messed up my fenders after 2 rolls, an endo, and rearending somebody, I broke a front shock from excessive jumping, etc.

Well Im Just Not Seeing The Cost Difference From OEM Plastic To Maier.... Maier Is way Chaeper Than OEM ..... For A 250r That Is....

[spliffy]

Holy Cow... I had To Go Look For My Self... OEM 400ex Plastc Is Very Cheap From Service Honda... Any Idea How Hard It Is To Put That Plastic On A 250r?

[Woodsrider]

Yes it is cheap. But shipping is 45 bucks. that puts it over the retail cost:eek: So now, do I pay the shipping, or do I pay the state sales tax? either way I have to wait for it to get here.
