There are three pieces to this plastic, Front Fenders, Rear Fenders, and Gas Tank Cover. I just installed mine, and I can't seem to get the ON-Off Valve hole for the gas to fit properly. The plastic is a pain to put on I think. But, in the end the result is really nice. I'd show you a pic of mine, but my batteries are dead to my camera.:grr Hope I could help.

If you get the race cut front plastic(which you cant run the stock headlights) the side panels are molded in, its only on the stock front plastic that has the seperate side panels and the opening for the headlights,but they dont sell the black plastic piece that goes under the headlights.I just found out after recieving my green plastic from them(to replace the blue) a couple days ago that they dont make a green tank cover yet.Just ordered the Hiper Tech. wheels with green beadlocks to match the plastic,should hopefully look good.

You could always get aftermarket lights and still run the race cut plastic.

Im just having a hard time getting a visual... :( I tried to look up some pics of the race cut plastic and had no luck with any good pics... I like the fullbore too but gosh,.talk about spendy:eek: I would like to go with this .......Silver, and black I think(or do you think red would be better) hipers(black beadlock) black and silver seat cover embroidered"400ex" in the center of seat,with flames on side of cover then Ill do a cumston flame job not sure on colors for flames yet...any suggestions?

Hey quadjunkies, Here is a pic of my trailteck lights. Much brighter than stock. I never use my stock lights now and ride at night in the desert all the time.
I think silverfox runs silver plastics, I saw a pic one time and they look great. Thats what my next set will be.

has anyone thought of putting an 88 style 250r hood on their ex plastic? this would solve the problem of buying race cuts and running a headlight...plus i think it would look really cool, and be no different than putting a flat hood on ex plastic or a carbon hood on racecut........just an idea....

well I didnt find the pics of it in silver, but I did find this one in black(which looks darn good too I might add!!):blah I like the plastic with stock fenders the best;) I can always cut the fenders.. ,So you think red or black would be the best main color to work with?? I was thinking black with hints of red and a touch of silver in the flames im going to do on my custom graphics......
