plastic for rev summit

[cody_davidson]

looking to replace the side panles and hood on my 05 summit. i would like to go with all black plastic. not to sure if i want to go with aftermarket light weight or just stock plastic.

 

[twin turbo]

are your's smashed up? if not why bother spending $$ on worthless chit.not a big weight saver for the dollar,

 

[cody_davidson]

well they are not smashed up but they got lots of pressure marks on them cause i rolled it really bad in mcbride a year ago.

 

[twin turbo]

there is alot of stock used panels for them and since it aint worth the coin to try to light weight in this department,oh u might save a pound or two but really is it worth buying other than stock?se what kinds of deals you can get never know nowadays.

 

[maxwell]

the stock plastics arent to expensive. only about 130 a peice. and the nice thing about new stock panels is they wont come with stickers so you wont have thsat faded look when you take the stickers off. like TT said your not gona save much with the lightweight panels. for the money anyways

 

[HagmanMod1]

if cash isnt a problem take your panels or new ones and put vent kits on them

 

[cody_davidson]

no money is'nt the ish u. i would like to do screen kits, but the whole panel is pressure marked, so i was thinking that i was going to do new plastic, then do screen kit

 

[cody_davidson]

but also wondering if its posible to paint the side panels. or would it look like crap

 

[brew_doo]

Check e-bay. I got both black side panels with R&M vent kits in them for $180 last fall. Great deal. :d:d

there should be a body shop or a air brush guy on here that should know if there is a special paint avalible.regular paint sucks,and once you do it your sol.gotta do it right the first time.

 

[cody_davidson]

if i were to paint them i would get a pro to do it. im no painter, i would just make it worse

 

[twin turbo]

i would too,cause we tried it,lol

I think there is a special paint called Krylon or something like that, which is used for plastic. I am going to get some to paint my jerry can black.

Use caution when painting it black. did it to my jerry can and in the summer it went kaboom. the can expanded more than it normally does. Took the boxliner out of my truck.

I suppose it would build up more heat...... winter use only

Turples has a used Right hand black panel for $60 it looks like it was off a07. very dusty but the only damage looked to be was rope burn marks.

I THINK MR R'S IN MILO HAS ALL THE PANELS AS TAKE OFFS, AND ALSO CHECK WITH SPECIALTY SLEDS FOR NEW TAKE OFF PANELS.....
