inserts

Okay, I have a quiz now;

What can a guy do with the open ends? I really don't want to cut the ends straight but I would also like an end that looks finished, or a plug in it like an end of a handlebar.

Anyone?

TOP..i for one do not have this bumper YET..(due to money shortage) but i belive Paul said that they are sending out the end caps for those who want hem..get your name to him and he will hook you up..

i wouldnt make a cheesy insert for a great bumper..skinz will make it right, they always do whats needed to make everyone happy..

I already received the ends... You HAVE to cut your ends square to use them...

OH..whopps..sorry..

so you have to cut your own huh..wierd..

i stand corrected

 

[Top]

No problem

That is why I ask the question; what can a person do to make the ends look finished.... Hummmm..... Thinking.....

handlebar ends or smooth handlebar grips?
if you have the natural bumper you could try this product to cover the holes.
it takes some practice but it could work.

Possible Fix?

I don't have my bumper yet, however, after reading the replies about the end caps I've come up with an idea.

I was thinking about using some plastic "dowel type" stock slightly larger than the inside diameter of the pipe end, insert about 1/2" into pipe end, shave down to match the angle of the pipe end. Once I get my bumper I'll try it, see how it works and then post pics.

That seems like a great idea. Where would a guy find plastic stock like that? I have an idea to add to that. How about find stock the same as the outside diameter, then shave the first inch and a half to fit inside the bumper and then cut the rest off at the 45 degree angle a quarter inch away from the end. Hummmmm..... I need to find some stock.

$197.95 plus shipping.

As for the bumper caps I think getting creative is the best option. I personally like the open end look but I know it's not for everyone.

It's one of my problems... I always have to screw with stuff to make it my own

There is a company here in Salt Lake where you can get all sorts of shapes, colors, density, etc. I know how to get there I just don't know the physical address. I'll be in there tomorrow and get all of the contact info and send it to you.

Finally got my mine installed. I am very pleased with the way it turned out. I am going to take Top's great idea and mold the filler pieces around the panel but I dont have time now. Leaving for a trip at 5am so I am frantically trying to get this thing back together. Just thought I would share.

 

[Top]

That looks FR*&^%&* sweet!

I don't think you got enough rivits in it though??? LOL

 

[RFIRE4]

Well after the flimsy stocker I am not taking any chances. Now if I hit a tree it will be an insurance claim instead of hundreds of dollars out of my pocket
