I hope I can put it back together again lol. opps she might read this lol. parts should be done next week so she can help me put it back together lol. hey honey, did you take pictures or do I just get to guess where all the parts go? oh dont worry I have that bucket for the left over parts lol. I just have to make the pink ones fit, right? lol. everytime I look in the garage I wish the sled fairy would stop by and do something lol

dont worry hun! I THINK I can put it back together! if not I will start with a sorry now lol!

all guys should start every morning when they wake with "Im sorry honey for everything I did wrong yesterday, and that Im GOING to do today" LOL

for the wheels just paint them black and/or turn the previous red side to the inside.

Just remember less is more. Let her put some pink on it just keep it to a minimum. Paint or powder coat a couple suspension pieces.
Oh and if she wants to go all out, well make her pay for it and then maybe she won't want it completely pink when she sees the cost. Either way as long as she is happy you know you will get more sledding time.

Aftermarket hood in pink. I do not think you are going to get lucky enough to find too much in pink. I went purple and it was tough finding things in purple, but you could do the hood, maybe the grips, I doubt the hyfax (I have tried to get purple ones for years, they don't do them for a 151). I got lucky with the belly pan protector and the snow flap. I bet you could find something snow flap wise. It does not need to be a snow flap, it can be a mud flap.

Good luck, I am being paged to the garage.

ya might be better off picking up some plastic paint and painting it

the only thing is you have to choose a darker shade then what the original is. my 98 rmk is all black and red, the belly skid plate is purple. im dying it black.

too late....I need to find a 45 gallon drum to mix the dye in now lol. might have to try using a paint brush, then washing it off. she did use a jiffy marker on the red on the seat and looks great. I used the plastic paint and dont know if it will stay on.....if not she has her jiffy marker lol.
