Will be when all are ready buddy, once these are done and dusted itll be on to the '91 works bumpers.

Was pondering a rear stubby guard for the '94 too, just to give that exposed rear stab some protection from the usual scratches or rear end shunts, gotta protect these rare chassis plates i guess, have to see if i can make it work and worth fitting.

Like the idea of a rear guard, these babe's need all the protection they can get.

At least, i dont think he's producing any shells at the moment. Ken Reith on here does a lovely YZ10 shell though, its softer than the OE ones, but the fit is superb.
Cheers - have dropped Ken (aka Cobra?) a PM

New racing shell for the '94. Was going to have Neil here paint this, but the shell was quite up to par, few warps i had to pull out, so didn't wan to throw more money at it (don't worry Neil, i still have work for you lol) to get it ready.
Decided to pick up the airbrush, threw some tape on it and make do with what little colors i had, isn't too bad seeing as its been a long time since I've painted, two little seeps, easily fixed with some period decals!

bests.......lee

Cool paint job!

Are those bumpers made of kidex? I was thinking of making a skid plate for the rear of my xx4 but I don't know which material to use.

Yes Kydex buddy, and yup, I'm going to knock up a rear bumper for the YZ too, just to cover that protruding chassis nub that screams, delaminate lol.
