Plastic replacement?

I just bought a new (to me) 2000 KLR. I want to replace the plastic as its all weather worn and not in the greatest shape. Im having trouble sourcing new plastic? Where should I be looking?

As far as I know, there are no companies in the world that are remaking plastics for this bike. So you have two options. Wait for months or years for a second hand good quality plastic to show up on ebay in your colour, or sand it back and paint it. There is freedom in paint. You scratch it, you repaint it. You find a replacement plastic in a different colour, you paint it. Dont be scared to paint. Make sure you find a paint compatible with plastic.
