I tried finding this but was unsuccesful. Im looking for plastic or carbon fiber scoops. I dont really like the looks of the metal ones. I tried Quad techs site and they didnt show anything. Didnt see anything for Maier either. Does anyone know of any companys that still make them or do they exist?

Buy the aluminum ones... clean them well... hit them with self etching primer... then with the color of your choice if you don't like the aluminum look.

Buy metal ones and paint them what every color you want.

Yes, you can PC aluminum.

I wouldn't do it though.

PC is very tough for many applications, but for things that get rubbed and hit all the time... yeah it's tougher than paint... but it's going to get messed up.

I'd do it with something you can touch up yourself from time to time.

The aerosol bedliner from Rustoleum that I used on my Polaris wheels is standing up just as well and I can touch up any time.

It's textured and hard to clean up though sometimes... But I think there is smooth stuff out now too, so....
