2010 Outlander 800 fenders

Does anyone know where to find some fenders/plastics for a 2010? Has yellow on it now, wouldn't be opposed to changing color to black or something. Cracked the rear fender so that's the main one I need.

i am a new rider and have a 2009 ranger/rzr that has been modified with longer axles and "a" frames to about 55 inches (looks more like a 900 rzr set up)
the question is -- if i buy wheel spacers (2" per side - total of 4" wider stance) will it help my stability in ruts or side hills.
i will appreciate all the feedback on this that i can get

2008 Can am tires?

New guy here so hello everyone. I recently upgraded from the 1995 Polaris 300 4x4 aka the beast to a 2008 Can am 650XT. My question is it still has factory carlisle tires and factory wheela on it in pretty good shape. 26x8x12F and 27x10x12R. I have a 2" lift kit on its way now to help with the weight of the plow. I want to upgrade my tires. Good all around use mud, dirt, snow etc. Looking at tires with a 1" tread depth. I cant seem to find anything I like for the front 8" width. So I will probably go with 9". Rough measurment I only have about 1/2" to the tie rod and also the rear trailong arm. Will 1" spacers all around be sufficient enough to use that wider tire? Would I need to up the rear to 11's to keep the offset from front to rear the same? With that do I bump up to 27's vs 26's? I dont want to afdect the steering to much as turning in the woods can be a workout already.
Any info and help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, JD
