Again please, can I get the vendors for realistic restoration bodywork. Thin smooth original looking quality.
Thanks!

The only good ones that looks original KTM WORLD refuses to reorder because of cost. I am trying to get in touch with Barry Higgins who owns the molds and see if I can buy enough to distribute it.  The only other options are fiberglass ones made in Europe that look the part but are not flexible or DC Plastics which are fine for racing but not shiny like originals.

Isn't Roberto Petinato (ParmaBike) importing the Pillordino replicas now?

I don't know what your intent is, but, I just got some DC Plastic pieces for another brand of bike that look really good.  The company has improved on their finished product.  The plastic is very smooth, and has a nice shine to it. Much better than what they were selling several years ago.......

DC Plastics is fine for racing but because of the way they are made are not near as shiny as the originals.   I thought Roberto's were fiberglass.  Maybe I  am wrong.
