does anyone make yellow carbon plastics? I think they would look pretty good on a bike with a black frame, a-arms, and swingarm, anodized red accents and the yellow carbon plastics. Ive saw the gray carbon plastics

Maiers makes them you can either get them on the website or you can find good deals on them on ebay. They arent real carbon fiber though its just a print on the outside of the fenders. I bought a gas tank cover with the carbon print on it and was not to impressed with the look but thats just my opinion which ever you decide goodluck

Quadjunkies did a 250 build with white CF plastics and it sure looks good I might say.

I dont have it anymore because I got fullbores and the stock gas tank cover isn't compatible with them so I gave it to my friend

as far as i know they have never made yellow ones. just the white ones that have the graphics on it. they look sweet though. steve

I've never seen yellow, but I have the white carbon fibers on mine and really, really like them. With any of the carbon colors, you'll more than likely be the only guy with them wherever you ride. It's nice to be different......

they would have to be custom ordered. the only ones that are regularly made are white and grey

thats the reason i want them. Im going to look for some yellow ones and price them out. Might have to splurge in a month or so and get some.

ok so i did a quick search and cant find yellow ones. Im considering going with white carbon look ones.

This is the White we have ..
Yellow would be SICK! :D

Hey ya'll... dont they make it in Black too? Maybe Im wrong but I thought they did. I have to say the White CF Plastic is one of the Favorties we have ever had so far. I really liked my Orange Fullbore but this is so different is why we chose it.

OH! I just now realized you had that plastic ! lol
Im glad I didnt get it now ... I was thinking it was a true dark black- now I know!
Looks sweet on yours ! I think the carbon film will be a nice added defense in keeping the plastic free from scratches abit longer too.

quadjunkies, i saw the plastics in another thread. Looks awesome and im considering white ones just like that. I still havent called them about yellow but they would look killer as im trying to keep a yellow theme

they are shaped that way because of the model bike, not the brand of plastics. just to save you some thought

what you mean model bike? are they for the 400ex?

not the white ones that quadjunkies posted. I believe they are for a raptor 250

ya they are for a raptor 250. the 400ex ones are shaped like mine

cheater13
02-22-2010, 06:50 PM
o well that sucks. they look sharp. but 400 ex's plastics are cool anyway. they should try to make something like this to put out for the honda quads. just my opinion though

tayyo789

You could make them fit, you would just have to build your own brackets. There would probably be a lot more involvement than that, but it is possible if you know what your'e doing

cheater13
02-22-2010, 07:06 PM
yeah thats a way if you want to get involved though. i think ill keep the 400 how its sposed to be:cool:

The new ex's have similar fenders actually. they would probably be a lot easier to put on. A lot more of the styling you are looking for, I would look at those
