Hello,
The new mudguard just got here from Canada :cool:
It`s a very,very good solid plastic remanufactured mudguard.It`s hard to tell the difference with a nos one :shock:
It has the extra hole as per the mudguards fitted to the 1ge.

I finally decided to get one from the seller in Toronto on ebay , I can see some difference , plastic is textured like a vinyl seat cover and details are not as sharp as the Yam part . Rubbed in some place , I will have to repaint it to get a perfect finish .
