New plastics!!!
Posted: Wed Aug 24, 2005 10:54 pm
Hey guys, found a guy on ebay who was selling plastics, well he is 30 minutes away from me! I e-mailed him and I went up there today to get them. I got 3 sets for 180 bux, 60 bux each, I thought it was a pretty good deal, and I am so happy!
Apparently the guy goes to freight auctions all the time, he probably bought these dirt cheap, somebody who was supposed to be getting 15 sets of plastic didnt!:mad:
Well I got a set bolted up, they are sweet, Im going to hack up my heel guards tomorrow and make some fender supports, and I need the front fender braces, my quad had shaved fenders when I bought it so I dont have any. Im sure somebody has a set laying around. Oh and I also need some black spar covers, if someone wants to sell some cheap.
Also one other thing, Im not sure if my subframe is bent, or i have really matted down seat rubber grommet things, because there is a lot of play inbetween the back of my plastics and the sub frame, when I put the seat on and sit on it and stuff, it pushes the back down to the seat grommets, and there is like 2 inches of play, I have cracks in my old plastics, and I know these will crack soon to right at that little stress point. I dont know what I need to do...? Bigger grommets, or what???
Anyways, sorry for writing a book, heres some quick pics I took...
