clear plastics?

[original_sin]

does anyone know where i can get see-through plastics? they arent completely clear because they come in the colour of the bike (red) but you can still see through them. i think mike cinqmars used to have them. if anyone has any pictures or knows where i can buy some, that would be gr8

[[TOPGEAR]]

never heard of them. clear plastics would be cool as

[moto_josh]

yeh ive seen them on cinqs bike hey. i got one of him and the bike on an arnette poster. i would say maybe hes got them custom made

[original_sin]

yeh thats where i saw them! on the arnette ad, i lost it though... could u scan it??? i just want to prove to the guy at action motorcycles that they r real! then he might try n get some 4 me

[[TOPGEAR]]

[fmx_kid89]

clear plastics would be cool!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[[TOPGEAR]]

yeh, i dont think they would be cheap either

[moto_josh]

yeh this is the pic from that arnette poster the plastics do look see thru but it may just be the picture or they mite be metallic

[GStylEr]

They're not transparent they're just candy apple red chromed.

[[TOPGEAR]]

is that it ??

thats no big deal

[enslow]

those plastics on cinq's bike still look sick...I dunno if I'd buy em though...

[[TOPGEAR]]

i went to the site on his fork guard but it says page cannot be found

[FoXRaCiNG.2]

my dads m8 does moto plastics so he's gonna make me sum speciaslized ones

[Timma_yz125]

about how much would they cost?
i dont think they would b ceap

[FoXRaCiNG.2]

bout $300 at set but i found a better and cheaper way.

[[TOPGEAR]]

?

[FoXRaCiNG.2]

this place near me sells crome paint in every colour im told. and i now this guy who can sell me this stuff which helps the paint stick on and won't break when u flex the fenders.

[Blue Haze]

Acerbis used to make plastics called ghost plastics in pretty much every colour, not sure if they still do, the problem with them was that if ya dropped the bike they would get huge white stress marks through them, BUT! if your a choice rider and can keep ya bike on 2 wheels you will be fine! :-)

[original_sin]

hmmm chrome plastics are mad! but they r a bit expensive bcoz its not actually paint its like liquid metal, or something along those lines... so do clear plastics really exist ??? coz i still want them....

[[TOPGEAR]]

what about perspex ??

[Mungoman45]

Even if you could get someone to mold you up a set made of perspex, they'd be useless, as perspex doesn't flex at all, soon as ya lean it on something it'd snap clean apart.

[HONDA_BOY]

yer, thats true mungoman....

[GStylEr]

Wouldn't that depend how thick ya make it and stuff? Goggle lenses are perspex and they flex quite well. And we got some lil perspex windows on me lil bro's cubbyhouse and they're pretty flexible too so maybe if ya don't make em too thick it'd be ok... Would look hell weird though, seeing the dirt on your front guard and stuff...

[Mungoman45]

Ya'd need em to be thick enough to be rigid, if ya make em thin enough to be able to flex, they wont just flex when ya crash or bang em, they'll flex and wobble all over the joint and look shithouse not to mention not doin their job real well, of pretecting stuff. I think if anyone could make completely see through plastics, they'd be just "showroom" stuff like those chrome metalic plastics, no one would buy those for everyday riding, it's just pointless. Just my opinion on the whole dealio.

[FoXRaCiNG.2]

i found chrome paint for $5. sick

[Robbo66]

it needs to be special stuff. being sticky doesnt help. you need the special stuff they use on car bumbers.

we have perspix thats about 5mm thick, and you can bend it 180º without putting stress marks in it or snapping. its quite flexible.

[FoXRaCiNG.2]

who cares i found chrome paint for $5 BUCKS! woooot. (usually $10)

[[TOPGEAR]]

a clear petrol tank would be cool.

[FoXRaCiNG.2]

yeh fully sick

[Robbo66]

KTM tanks aren't 100% see through, but you can see how much petrol is in your tank.

[FoXRaCiNG.2]

thats what we call bad quality. :)

[mrwhippee]

Hey Fox,

Whats this paint youre talkin about?

[FoXRaCiNG.2]

spray on chrome paint

[original_sin]

haha ktms rock they rnt bad quality mate! wat colour is ur chrome paint?

[FoXRaCiNG.2]

you can get any colour you want

[shirefmx]

acerbis definately used to make clear plastics, not sure if they still do though, i remember seeing them on a brand new 99 cr in a shop back in the day.

[mulishatroop]

i heard that if u get those white crease marks in ur plastics that u heat em up a bit wif a hot air gun or a hairdryer and they disappear...... could be wrong though and if u had chrome paint on it may wreck that up pretty badly

[DTguy]

glow in the dark plastics..but that paint on glow paint
