anyone have a link to a decent set of aluminum front A-Arm Guards. Lost one riding and hate not having them on there for obvious reasons, actually even if someone can link me to a plastic set id be happy.

These look pretty decent. http://www.mcssl.com/store/autoproductgroupinc/cv-boot-guards/cfmoto/rival-front-and-rear-cv-guard-set-for-atv-cfmoto-x8-cforce-800

thanks erik. I was considering those. I find the price to be a little steep though when you can get a full aluminum skid kit for like $599

I agree.  the price is pretty steep.  you can get direct replacement plastic ones from Alpha sports.  They're only like 10 bucks.  https://alpha-sports.com/cfmoto_parts.htm

the guys at the dealer in corner brook shipped me a cpl. great to deal with. seems like the dealer here in st johns area doesn't stock a lot of parts. I would think that would be a stock item for sure as they are the first thing to fall off most ATV's lol
