ac mudscreen



Posted by: TCracin440ex

def the AC mudscreen....and if its not shiney enough for ya....get a dremel and some polishing compound and polish it...



Posted by: hondaexryda

ac racing bumper and stadium, or DG front bumper is good to..



Posted by: 02Yellow400

the new IMS ROLL bumper is nice also i forgot about that



Posted by: TCracin440ex

i wouldnt put dg on my quad if you paid me...them cheap arse nerf bars....ill stick with AC...my pro pegs are holding up just fine, my front bumper is holding up just fine too....



Posted by: stamperbob

Not saying ac's are junk, but as far as strength for like woods riding and xc racing I would either go with prm, ive had one for a year and its still straight as an arrow, couldnt say that much for my old ac though, But i guess it depends on what kind of riding you do



Posted by: Pungohboy

I just gor a PRM Baja bumper I like it alot. There is a review on here for them http://www.exriders.com/productreviews/bajabumper.html They seem to be strong alot of the GNCC racers run them. hope this helps.

AC's new bumper is now swept backed and very nicely polished I just got it last week, its very nice.

I got mine off ebay from atvaddiction dirt cheap brand new still in wrapping for $65. Which is $25 less than what AC charges.



Posted by: TCracin440ex

thats who i got my nerfs from...lewis does good deals on AC...i got my pro pegs off ebay from atvaddiction....185.00 shipped...considerin anywhere else was chargin anywhere from 200.00 to 250...and ac is charging 289.00...i also got my front bumper from lewis..



Posted by: crap-banshee32

im going to be making some....there going to look almost like the AC bumpers....ill let u know how they turn out



Posted by: 250rider

go duncan, nice chrome and is a nice look.



Posted by: TCracin440ex

duncan bumpers are expensive....id rather have my AC...if i break my ac i buy a new 1 for less than what a ducan racing bumper cost



Posted by: RiPPiNiTuP7

ac is the way to go



Posted by: Out_Sider

AC Racing!



Posted by: dannyboy20

i have the PRM baja. Very nice bumper. I had a tough time deciding between the Ac and that though. I like them both very much. In my opinion i think the Ac looks a little better but i have heard that the PRM is a stronger bumper. And since i do alot of woods riding and running over small trees and bushes i want something to hold up.

I have a PRM desert, which has bigger tubing then the other PRM's and I still tweaked it hitting a tree during a XC race. And I didn't even hit it THAT hard.



Posted by: QuadJunkies

I like my Armidillo http://www.imagestation.com/picture/sraid75/p5c98700852766814f680efe7a1027247/fb48e3cf.jpg

thats because it's made for the dessert. haha



Posted by: zlam27

i have a DG and the one thing i like most is how it sticks out farther than almost all other bumpers. its tough too, but not my favorite.

for looks, i agree that the duncan is sweet- $$ though.

i would go with the PRM baja, PRM is usually bulletproof although the bumper doesnt sweep the "looks" catergory.

BTW: arent bumpers supposed to take the shock of an impact, possibly bending to save your frame from getting tweaked?

Posted by: TCracin440ex

they do take the impact....u cant go mow down a tree with a bumper tho....they take the impact when you hit something they bend....id rather replace a bumper anyday over a frame, a-arms, ect.



Posted by: QuadJunkies

Pro Armor has a sweet bumper too. I got one for the Predator today, it reminds me of Bull horns for some reason , looks like a tough bumper...Cant wait to see it on



Posted by: BassGin3

PRM Summit!! Lots of protection all around and holds up great



Posted by: mxgirl

I have a BRM Bumper. It looks good, it's tough, and I haven't done any damage to it yet .





Posted by: jhr400EX

AC mudscreen looks the best IMHO.

looks like a mean Bull come at Ya!! Good luck



Posted by: creech10

meek, are those maier? can you put a quadtech hood on maier?



Posted by: Meek

Ya, I just got them last night. I am sure you could put a hood on them. Not sure why, most of the time people put hoods on is because they have removed the front lights. I am not saying that if someyone gave me a carbon fiber hood that I would not put it on. It would get put on the next day, but nobody likes me that well, so I dont have to worry about that.



Posted by: creech10

hahahahaah gotcha. i was just curious about the quadtech hood with the maier plastic. But anyway your ex looks pimped



Posted by: Meek

I tell ya what, you send me a carbon fiber hood and I will put it on to make you happy. You don't have to like me at all, just do this to make your self feel good.



Posted by: spincr4hire

the Orange looks sweet Meek! like the bumper, too.
Are you going to let Danger borrow your EX at Texas, or is he going to ride on the back with you?
