Gabe's white front fender on TT250

On one of the CSC blogs there were two pictures of a TT250 owned by "Gabe" which he had customized by replacing the flat black front fender with a gloss white one. To me, this is a huge improvement in the look of the bike.

Can anyone link me to Gabe or tell me what fender he used ?

I know there are, but given the strange mounting brackets on these bikes I thought that getting feedback from Gabe would save a lot of hassle.

You could always simply paint the front fender as well. As far as the bracketry and such, most aftermarket dirt bike fenders are pretty universal. All the fender needs is the 4 holes in it in the right place.

Dan, are the cutaways for the fork legs the same on the universal fenders ?

Painting by a professional might be more expensive than buying a fender. I only paint if someone requests runs, blobs, bubbles, orange peel and generally crappy results, then I can guarantee my work.

I like the shape of Gabe's fender and still hope to hear back from him or anyone who knows him. Once I know the brand, if I have to drill holes then so be it.

Not that I'm excited about that particular shape but the white front fender does make a huge difference. Time to go shopping!.....or get some Krylon Fusion.

Jerry, you nailed it. Thanks.

2LZ if you find another shape that you think looks better, please post a picture.
