Or, if the deep scratches are in the rear fender, trim them and you have a new set of dune fenders!!

That scratch remover stuff works for not very deep scratchs but for deep ones u might of well forget it. The scratch remover works good if u dont ride much because getting on and off takes away the shine.

I have the solution....... Just stay on the gas and no one will ever see those scratches ! Seriously though, I have seen a couple of "repair" jobs with those plastic repair kits, the ones I have seen did not look very good. The other solutions on this post are what I recommend (ie. wet sand, buff, pray) or save the dough and get new plastics (which you will sooner or later scuff and want to replace again). I guess I have a different attitude towards it........ I loke my quad to look good, but I am more interested in how it performs. If it were me I would make do unless I had some extra money with nothing else to spend it on. If nothing else they will provide for a good conversation piece....this happened when... If they were busted and falling off replace them other than that the only one that really notices is you. Good luck with getting the scratches out.
