Im tired of the way my quad looks. I need something new. Is there anyway i can strip the stickers off and pait the plastic and have it look half way decent. i want my a-arms and covers a different color. whats the best paint to use so it wont crack or fade or rub off? or whould i be better of buying new plastics. im looking for the cheapest solution.

I would go with a graphics kit before buying new plastics. You can find some pretty nice deals on ebay, I bought a complete One Industries kit with a seat cover for just under $100. It totally changed the way it looks. It's called the 'massacre' I get compliments all the time. As far as a-arm paint I would just prep them really well and use a few coats of krylon fusion paint OR just drop them off to get powder coated. You can also change bumpers, handguards, wheels.

You're probably gunna have to fork out some bucks...its what this hobby requires. Get some hipers and a graphics kit with a seat. Its probably the cheapest way to dramatically change the look of your bike. And you can always tare down your whole bike and do some mad powder coating.

+1 on the Hipers + graphics kit. Standard +2 A-arms is a good way to get it looking and performing better for cheap too...
