Hi. I am new here and this is my first post so please be patient. I am also newer to atvs (had them for one year). I have (2) 2006 Wolverine 450 4x4s' blue. Both have stress marks from being rolled. Anyway to get rid of the stress marks? I saw something about using a heat gun. I was hoping someone could elaborate on that and if there are any other ways of doing it. Anyone find after market fenders that don't get stress marks as much?

Thanks in advance

Jenny

 

Welcome to the forums jenny

As for the stress marks your best bet is to buy new plastics or have them painted. You can try the heatgun and it might help but you have to heat the plastic up extremely slowly so it doesnt burn in one spot. Also try it on the inside of the fender before you do it on the outside of it encase you dont like the results.

Ebay is your best bet for some fenders.

 

i have taken a lighter to some of the plastic bumpers to cars at work(jeep grand cherokees) you can actually see it change color back to the orignal color. works preety good

 

Thanks for the info. I had to order a new front fender for one because it was so cold that it cracked where there was a stress mark! Good old Michigan weather.

 

I've used my heatgun to remove some of the smaller stress marks... It doesn't work too well on the bigger marks...

 

Where do you live in michigan? Where do you ride? Im always looking for new places.
