I've searched ebay and googled like crazy. Maier has everything else covered but no mention of the plastic headlight guard/shroud. Anybody know where to get one in black?
If I can't buy one in black, I'll just use rustoleum plastic primer and paint mine black. Mine has a couple cracks anyway so it wouldn't be like wasting a perfectly good part.
BTW, I used Rustoluem plastic primer on some KX 250 radiator shrouds, went by the directions and gave it 5 days to fully cure and adhere to the plastic then painted them Kawie green. I haven't used them on a bike yet or anything but out of my own curiousity I banged them around and slapped them into the wall. Tryied to dig my fingernail into it to scrap off the paint and the paint held up just fine. Of course I didn't gouge metal into it because paint isn't going to withstand that no matter what. But i did basically everything they would go through while out riding and, surprisingly, it held up very well and didn't chip off or anything.
I would still rather find a black molded headlight shroud for my 350X if anyone makes them.
