well guys, i have 300 bucks, but i owe my dad money for the nerf bars, and steering stabilizer, so i'll have about 150 left over.
What i want to know is what bumper should i buy.
I'm absolutely crazy about that all black bling star iron cross bumper, but that $ 120 isnt too promising.
what bumpers would you guys reccomend to me? If it aint ALL black then dont bother

thanks,
jesse

Whats wrong with the alba bumper with the black screen. At 39.99 you can **** 4 of them up compared to that 120 dollar bumper.

There is the IMS Intimidator for 129.99

Pro Aluminum makes all their bumpers in a Matte Black finish also, it's in the new dirt wheels, but not on their site, you'd have to call them. But here's their site.

At ATV Overstock, They make a Bumper called the Fast-1. and you can get that in a matte black, eventhough it's not listed on their site.

Tag makes a Black Bumper for 140

Those should give you something to look at, I know some are above what you said, but it's still a few ideas.

Thats the best idea yet!!

well, after doing the math, it would actually cost MORE to do what i intended with the alba bumper. first i would have to buy the bumper, which woulf be about 50-60 shipped, and then once its here, i would have to ship it back out to get it pc'd, and even then pay for labor, and the paint, and tghen pay to get it shiped back out. If i do this im probably looking at the same price as any other alreay black bumper.
It's gonna hurtme, and my bank account, but I'm going with an all black iron cross bumper.

why not just paint it black??? it doesnt have to be pc'd does it?

Paint would never hold up on a bumper. It would be chipped up and rubbed off in no time.

do a good job and a couple coats and you should be fine.... one would think unless your bouncing off trees

well im gonna keep the ugly snow pow bumper for when im NOT at the track, but my blingstar will be on whenever my bike is not flying through the trees!
I have dealed with spray paint before, it comes off way to easy!
