Was it easy to do? Ive been wanting to put a raptor nose on my ex for a while,

CowsBitePeople
04-11-2003, 04:06 AM
Yeah i think it was pretty easy....just alot of trimming to perfect the cut and stuff so it fits good :macho I got the blue hood because i know im gettin the plastics soon and i wanted to make sure i could do it before I messed up new plastics....

MaTT....

does anybody think that would look beyond sick with fullbore aluminum raptor grills and front? or perhaps with some carbon fiber eh?

when you get the black plastics, you should do some blue flames, make it look limited editiion raptor...

I think the raptor hoods on the exs looks wild. I dont know if I agree with the blue though. with blue plastic and blue frame it would look mean. good job matt.

04-16-2003, 04:54 AM
Cowsbitepeople!!! COOL!!!! You did it!!! Good job - looks really flush on the sides and everything - I really like what you did with the lights!!! :) Doing the same thing on your new set of plastics should be easier now that you have already done it once! :)

That's so cool seeing someone else do it! I know there is one more person that has done this, but I haven't seen pics yet! So now there are three Yamahonda's around! :D :macho

400grl, do you have any more pics of yours?

How close is yamaha red to the honda's?

400grl
04-16-2003, 05:00 AM
I have one more....sorry they aren't real close up.....the Yamaha red is almost an exact match - outside it's perfect - if you are inside under artificial light, the Yamaha hood is just a tiny shade darker..........

My girlfriend might like that, she's always looking for some way to make her quad stand out from the rest.

How much are they and where can i get one??

skinrider440
04-17-2003, 03:39 AM
first place i would check is a yamaha shop and get the rappy hood for the 2003 LE

400grl
04-17-2003, 04:44 AM
Yeah - the '03 have the most color choices. Red, Blue, Carbon Fiber (not real, but looks good!) and maybe silver or black?? I've always thought the yellow plastic with the carbon fiber hood would look good!

You can get this hood from any store that sells Yamaha parts - it's a stock part. They aren't that expensive, either except the carbon fiber one. Prob'ly because it's limited edition..........

If anyone wants the details on how I did this (the ones I sent to Cowsbitepeople) then PM me with your e-mail addy and I'll get them to you.......although this weekend I'll be at Glamis, so if it's after today, I'll get back to you on Monday!

Matt,

I think the carbon fiber lookalikes cost around $60? And the Yamaha ones just come in black/grey.....they look cool, though......

04-22-2003, 03:40 AM
Glamis was beautiful - it was really windy before we got there, so all the sand was smooth and perfect......sand was slightly damp under the top layer.....weather was 80 degrees with just a hint of a breeze to keep the roost away.....almost full moon at night......it was the best I have ever seen it!! Bowling the big bowls was a blast because the dunes were sooooooo smooth! Too bad it's pretty much the end of the dune season out there - except for summer night rides. Unless we get a cold front in for Memorial Day Weekend, I probably won't get back there until Halloween!

I did a red raptor hood on yellow plastic. It looks pretty good with my red a-arms and red springs. I also got a polished stainless steel flame radiator guard and put it under the hood so it covers all the wiring and stuff. And I just ordered my trail tech lights from Rocky Mtn this morning. I paid $35 for the red raptor hood, $74 for the radiator guard, and $135 for the light kit. I still have to go and pick-up the red gas tank cover from the dealer, (hopefully the cover will match the hood) By the way, the cabon fiber raptor hood is $140 from the Yamaha dealer.
