    Why would you get them to make a number plate that is already being made? That just doesn't make any sense.

    I'm all for new trike stuff but wouldn't some new fenders (that wouldn't take business away from our fellow board member Aussie) be a better selling product?

    I don't see them making trike stuff any time soon. Theres not a big enough market for this stuff anyhow, it'd be different if everyone on this forum would buy new fenders when they hit the shelves but thats just not so. This topic has been done before, over and over. MAier will make you fenders if you want to pay for them, I suggest you go that route.

    The way I see it and I could be wrong, is that dirtbike plastic is always being broken and needing replaced, it can't be as easily/effectively repaired as trike fenders. It sells more then trike stuff, is smaller and easier to make, etc..

    WHat fenders can't you get? Maier makes just about everything??

    Have you looked into tecate fenders? What are meaning by "if you want to pay for them"? Will they make custom colors?

    Order of 10,,, they will make custom colours. 86/87 rear fenders in white/pink/whatever would look sweet don't you think??
