Hello
I have a 1985 250es Big Red.
New Maier rear fenders and trunk. 350X rear spring and shock, 350X carburetor. New LED lights, 12" ITP Delta steel wheel 12x7 with 2+5 offset. Duro Frontier 26x11x12 6ply. New plastic gas tank on the way.
I am in need of some advice. Plastic does not last in Arizona. Do I paint the plastic body works. Or wrap it?

Cool project, and man that front tire looks beefy! I would wrap the tank or get it hydrodipped in your favorite look.

4 Wheels? Huh?
Cool, I don't think you could have found a heavier tire for the front!!
Now replace those AWESOME Carlyle tires on the rear with something else and that thing will really go places..

Sure if you can get paint to stick to the plastic tanks. I know for sure that decals wont stick.
