Thanks.

Tough mofos too... they take a lickin and tept on tickin. :D

The BR also had nerf bars wich i need to make covers for, i plan to use the same crazy carpets to fill them in.....

The fender on the left was totally fuxored.. was missing 1/2 the plastic, so i had to build it up with 2 layers bolted together.. the right side was cracked but mostly there.. so it was easier to fix.

Looks different, but once i swap the mud flaps from my other atc parts bike i'll be all set..

I've seen these fenders in person tonight and it actually looks good ,anyone thinking about doing it i'd say it's the best idea i've seen yet aside from spending a load of cash on a new set,i'm definatly gonna keep this in mind when it comes time that my fenders are wrote off..cheapest fender you can get considering a crazy carpet goes any where between 0.99-$2.00 at the most..

Nice bike and good idea. I have an 84 also and just won that same skidplate/guard combo on ebay. How do you like it?

I love it.. it saved many toes so far. you could call it a stump stopper.LOL.

I want to fabricate nets for the bottoms, just need to get it running again first.
