Reconditioning a 74 1/2 Penton Hare Scrambler. Came across a nice Falk rear fender. The Falk has a matte white finish. Has anyone been able to come close to matching this color with a front fender? I have a gloss finish front at present (not installed). Just like the matte finish and would like to match. Preston Petty maybe?

Petty is slick.  The DC Plastics one is close but a little rougher perhaps.

The latest DC Plastic Products have been a little shinier as of last year. I haven't got any since then but it had improved before Mid Ohio. I got some RM fenders that were nicer than their previous ones. Mike

How about the Falk Dirt Champion offered by Enduro Klassiker?
I see they also offer a front version that looks original stock.

After more investigating the Repo Dirt Champion is also offered by DC.
The front fender I have was purchased from KTM World a while back.
The mounting surface looks to be very close to the curve of the mounting area. (not drilled and mounted yet) Is this a proper mounting? I will be installing the bracket for the speedo cable.
Appears that the KTM World repo width is narrow.
I have a set of DC's on my RM370.

I remember that the front fender on my new MC5 was very narrow...  Too narrow for me, so on day one I installed a nice wide Hi Point fender which is still on it today....

Found a Hi-Point Falk front fender on the eBay. Dirt Champion, just what I needed.
On the topic of Hi-Point. Anyone running the new Hi-point tires that are available?
