Had to go back a look at them a couple of times.....I think it looks good. Goes with the black grill, and the black strip between the fender and the flare. I'd say go for it.

I think you should do it and perform the "clear corners" mod at the same time.

I agree with mossman. It does seem to bring the black parts of the front end together a little more. As far as the blacks go, I vote to match it with the emblem.

Looks good...

One piece of advice:

If you decise to go with a gloss black (no pearl or metallic), I highly recommend Krylon Fusion rattlecan paint.

I have used it on several ATVs over the ladt year and a half when it came out, and have never used a better paint for adhesion and durability on plastic to include professional PPG products out of a SATA gun.


Here's a pic of an ATV I painted more than a year ago with fusion.. Keep in mind this is after a 120 degree summer, at least 100 hours in the sand dunes, (ie; not a "show" bike)etc.....
