I heard that used (exploded) airbags work very well, and you can usually get them for free from the junkyard:thumbsup:

Fenders and guards are looking good Ed!

I was referring to the material airbags are made from, Kevlar. My buddy uses them when he makes stuff out of fiberglass (instead of 'glass matting):smile:

 

[gbones]

oh i see. i didnt know they where made from kevlar. now thats good recycling:thumbsup:

Alot of people have been asking me to make these fenders in fiberglass. Here is the first rear fender out of the mold. Still needs to be trimmed up.The front fender will be the same fender but shortened up a bit. Thanks George 3 for use of the original fender to make the mold !
I think Dave Miller makes these and sells them for $150.00 for the pair, mine should be alot cheaper. You will need to make your own brackets or use originals.

Are you still making these fenders? Like too get a pair for my MX restore project.
