MX 250/360/500 mudguards.
« on: February 07, 2013, 02:38:20 pm »
Does anyone make good quality silver front and rear mudguards for the MX250? I'm looking for something as close to original as possible that doesn't need painting. I've got graphics so I 'm not worried about the stripe.

I tried to find VMX Plastics but the website didn't work. Is Scott still in business? If so, why is it so difficult to find him?

They where originally painted Mark, It would look better if you paint the tank and guards/sidecovers together.

Well it looks as if Jimmy's got a NOS front guard that I'd bought in the USA y6onks ago and had been included in a shipment he brought in from the USA. I'd forgotten all about it. I'll just get my white or yellow NOS rear guard and tank painted to match it.........solved.
