    The other day we had the seat off of MY daughters 04 sporty , & right there on the rear fender was a piece of clear plastic , looks to a peal & stick , to help protect the fender from rubbing the fendre raw, Does anyone know where I can find some of this stuff? I don't need much about a 4X4 piece
    Thank's

    wally world.....craft section, hobby lobby, most craft stores......kroger, shelf liner in clear.....to get it to lay down with no creases or bubbles, spray the fender with a solution of a llittle dishsoap and water....once ya get it like ya want, let it dry before handling.......:)

    Good idea Cowboy. I've got signs of a little rubbing where different size seats have left their mark on my 2003 Sporty's rear fender. I'll take a look and see if a well placed piece of clear plastic might prevent further scuffing.

    3M paint protection film

    The stuff you are looking for is 3M paint protection film, it is very durable, but pricey, I would be very leary of putting anything on it but 3M, the cheaper stuff will yellow and get brittle, I am conmtemplating putting some on the tops of my saddlebag lids so I wont scuff the paint if the OL would happen to drag her feet while getting on, you can google 3M paint protection film, and you can also fid it on ebay here is a link to the 3M store
    3M eStore: Scotchgard Paint Protection Film
