No I don't sell it but hey now that you think of it  :-P Nah lol. I've just used it a lot on my older vehicles and a lot of friends and family machines. My opinion not too bad

that plastic renew is crap.......
When you get the product only then do you see how useless it is.

You cant use detergent, cant spill fuel on it, when it looses its lustre you have to re apply.
You might as well use Armour all or the Motal silicon spray.

I watched some interesting youtube ways & used the scrape, sand 400 wet'n'dry, wipe & heat gun ... yes & this worked, its alot of work, but for my 87 KX500 & 86 CR500 theres no alternative. (new plastics-i wish)

Just my 10cents worth

Buy a new one.  A polisport fender on motosport is around $19.  Also I'm not sure if they fit your year, but I just got a 2010 kx450 front fender.  Looks a lot meaner and bolts right up to an O3.

Every body is quoting front fenders... What about the $50 shrouds or 40-$50 rear fender. to buy all new plastics for a K5 is well over $20 for the front fender. Don't think just the front fender is dull lol. 2cents
