Hi some of you know me some of you don't. i am trying to get some ideas on future products. so far i have airboxes, and skidplates planned. i need some equipment also. now im not expectin to end up like FMF or OMF overnight. im just pokin around, doin some market reasearch. what would YOU guys like to see out there and for WHAT PRICE. ideas? slap em down here on the table! even if they already exist. oh, and by the way, is there any better way of cutting aluminum then a bench grinder or dremel..... like there has to be a press or sumthin. lol and also, some of the members here may even recieve sponcerships from me sporting the very products you devloped on your machines! lol thank you all, ttyl!

Maybe try starting off with the normal stuff like skids, and maybe a bumper if thats possible, maybe we could help ya come up with a sweet and origanal design! Im hopefully getting a 400ex in a month or so, and I'd GLADLY help ya test your products. Shoot me a Pm. If your looking into doing a bumper, I would like to help with the design!

i think a good one would be heel clicks like the pro peg ones but they can be used with regular nerfs....i would buy em if the price was right.(when i get a 400)

it would be neat to make a air induction on a quad not liek the z-400s i mean a real one comes out by your legs kinda like this ok have it attach to the airbox
have a aluminum tube go on a easier side to get it out of have it as big as possible and as straight as possible have the end go out on it like this
______________________________
---------------------------------______________

so it will grab air and put a screen or something on it so it will black dirt an make a snap in cover on it if you run in muddy conditionsor something i will draw her up and post it later...........

but you need this

aluminum airbox
mounting smooth intake better- air velocity
aluminum tube
square and long intake.........
