Front fenders
« on: September 03, 2008, 12:12:15 PM »
I am going to replace my front fenders with new ones. I can find fenders for 86-88 and 90-95. I have an 88.5 tin top.  In the tech section it said there was a slight change in the grill but if you order a new grill it says it will fit 86-91. Then at Suzuki john web page he says 86-early 88 then 88.5- 95   what fenders fit what years?? Anybody know fore sure?

The fenders are the same through all the years.  So you don't have to worry about that.  :)

Now that would be cool.  Of course, if he lost the fenders due to trees and rocks imparting their will upon them, fiberglass might not be the best choice of replacements.  :D

Yeah, but fiberglass fixes fiberglass!  :D
Maybe I should make a mold of mine now before they get "modified"  ::)

True, but a hammer fixes metal.  :D  As for making a mold, might not be a bad idea. And if you flared them out a bit you could probably sell a few pairs.  :)

Hmmmm. How about pre-trimmed and flared? Just bolt 'em on with your new 35" tires!

I assure you I have a very delicate touch.  That is why my SJ has a perfectly smooth skin with nary a dent on it.   :P

Hmmmm. Your hammer must require less liquid "courage" than mine to operate! :( :o

No, really - this is the magic fix. Put these fenders on and you can go anywhere.! ;)
