Red face 450r plastics

Hey guys, I was out in the trails and my throttle somehow conveniently got stuck. Long story short, a tree jumped out and hit my quad. My front fender broke off and that damned tree cracked part of the rear one. So after getting a wonderfully cheap quote from Honda(sarcasm), I figured I might as well do the whole plastic kit and maybe go for something different.

I have a 2004 trx450r and was wondering if I could fit the 2007(newer) model plastics on mine? I want to go to a white or black kit but don't really know what will fit. Is the front hood really the only difference between the different models? thanks

sorry to hear you busted it up, but that happens in the off-road world.

You should look and see what Maier Plastics can do for you before you bust your wallet to get OEM replacements. Maier makes a wide variety of colors and styles that may suit your needs.

IMO, Black and white are the worst choices for ATV plastics, as they show dirt (white) and scratches (black) a lot easier than almost all the other colors

Here's a link to get you started

Thanks man, will look through that site. What other colour scemes would look good on a trx? I am just a little tired of the red so I want to do something different.
