I think that having black fenders front and back would be pretty . Since the stock fenders are eventually gonna get trashed, why not paint 'em black and save some $ on new ones(for now). To get the best results from painting plastic, should I sand 'em down and use multiple coats or what?

 

A body of mine paints bikes let me know if you want his # he lives in granite city.

No, I have bad a$$ spray gun I havent used yet

 

Just do what I did. Go to the store and get the fattest permanent marker you can find and then stock coloring your fenders. Spray paint chips away too easy, with the marker you can bend fall and still not worry about chipping.Its easy and cheaper.

 

Wouldn't that leave streak marks like it can on paper? I'm sure I'll work but I don't wanna look like a hoosier! Isn't there flexible paint you can buy, I'm sure they make paint for plastics. Look at model paint!

 

you might want to use plastic dye. I'm not sure were you can pick some up but im sure someone here will.

 

sharpie is pretty gangsta

 

I painted my front number plate with the new "Krylon Fusion" Plastic spray paint. It holds up pretty good!

 

"Krylon fusion" is some ****. i used it on some plastic and the stuff doesnt chip at all.

 

o.k. go out to your local paint supplier.and tell them your painting over plastic. their is a clear adhesive spray(i forget the name )but you sand evrything smooth and then apply a coat of this stuff and then you apply your paint over it while its still a little wet and the paint sticks awesome no chips. but hey only my

plastic/vinyl dye is the way to go, you can get it at most auto parts stores with a decent spray can selection.. shouldnt have any problems dying the red to black.. i personally havent used it on the fiddy or other plastic, but ive talked to folks that have used it in the past and it seems that the way to go

 

Thanks for all your help guys. Now I can be gansta!

 

why dont you order individual black plastic from shugga if you dont want to buy it all? much easier on the brain and fairly cheap..

 

Because I'm not only 1. cheap, 2. broke, but also like to make my own things.

 

cool - i myself bought a nice set of yellow plastic
