I'm sure something could be fabricated. Are you thinking of cutting the current fenders and using them? It dosn't seem like it would be too difficult to do. I wouldn't buy Bomb. fenders though.

The idea crossed my mind awhile back but I never looked into it.

What would you call it Honbardier? or Bombonda? JK:D

We need more info on how? Do you wan to use the bomb's metal hardware of mount them on your platic? I think it would look trick to put them on like the Bomb has them on the wheel!!

LOL!

I haven't looked at a Bomb. up close so I don't know how they are mounted. If I were to do it, it would be all custom fabrications. I haven't put much thought into it yet.

You should be able to order them from a local Bombardier dealer. They are 20-25$ each. (feander no harware) The mounts are 65-75$ each and wouldn't mount on your 300 without lots of mods.

I think it would be hard to find fenders for a quad that hasn't been sold that much. I mean there are a few out there but not a lot of them being parted out yet. It could take awhile to find some if any..

I bought a set of the Maier plastic fenders a while back for my 300ex. Maier sells the front fenders for the 300ex in two parts, the center "race cut" piece, and the plastic fender that bolt on to them. I think the new Maier fenders were $60. I looked at a Bombardier, and it looks like you could trim the Maeir fenders a little and use aluminum strips from the hardware store to mount them to the front a-arms. I never got around to doing this, but it looked pretty doable. What do you think? If anyone has done something like this, I would like to see pictures. I thought it would look pretty cool, and I like being able to see the front tires when I'm riding through the woods anyway (it helps you miss trees).

Good luck,

Why would you want to do that? I think the DS650's fenders are ugly.

I also think the DS650's finders are very Ugly...wait no Gross thats the word ! lol

Just my oppinion though...

I know where I ride those girly little front finders over the tires would be the first thing to come Flyin off, either from Rocks, Trees, Or Me ripping them off !

Those fenders are actually a rreally good idea, all the benefits of shaved front fenders (no drag), yet you still get a little bit of protection from getting stuff thrown at ya from the front wheels.

I wanted to do that too!!! since i got my 400ex arms on, the fenders don't protect much!!! Sides that i would get rid of the *Beeping* Warning ''decals''

I meet a guy at Glamis this past Thanksgiving who fabricated brackets and carbon-fiber fenders to have the same look as the Bomb's. They were on a 400ex and looked pretty sweet.

Did you happen to see how they were mounted? As in what they were mounted to.
