[hotphil]

hey i'm prolly gonna get new plastics, what color should i get? which color doesn't show scartches very much?

dont get white, its so hard to get clean

I love my white fenders. They're really not that hard to clean. The only part of mine that's really hard to clean is the part on the right rear, where it has deep gouges from when I crashed it into the rocky ditch. All it takes to get them nice and clean on the other spots is a Mr Clean Magic Eraser and some scrubbing. The part I like about the white fenders is that they don't show any stress marks or scratches like colored ones do.

hmmm, i was thinkin black, how does black do?

 

[hotphil]

or maybe silver?

 

[yamarider]

The darker you get, the more the scratches and stress marks are going to show. Black would be pretty bad for that. And silver... well, did you ever see silver plastics up close? They're always swirly and just cheap and dull looking, even when they're brand new. The colors that will hide the scratches the best will be white, yellow, orange, lime green, and maybe red.

 

[hotphil]

hmm orange sounds kool

i think i might just get blue again, seeing how i got a 60$ flame graphix that are partly blue..

Whenever mine need replaced I'm going to get yellow. I think it would look pretty sweet with yellow plastics.

[hotphil]

I like the grey on my z400, and the yellow on my dads warrior looks good.
White is actuall easiest to clean and hides scraches better. Black fades and shows stress marks.
