Default Just got hong kong fairngs!

Ok, for the most part they look good. and they also gave me a tank cover?? Which was odd sense thats not what i ordered but anyway. They didnt come with any heat protection like the seller said.. Has anybody had any problems with them melting with how hott our bikes run and riding in summer?? Or should i just wait and get some heat wrap before i put them on??

I had a buddy order some for his RR (don't remember the year), They looked great, but when he went to put him on the bike, some of the holes weren't even drilled out, and the two sides didn't line up AT ALL. It was like somebody tried to recreate them from a picture without actually having the bike there. He sent the guy a nasty email, and the guy responded like 2 weeks later, offernig to "fix" them if he'd send them back ( to freakin China). He ended up filing a PayPal dispute and getting his money back.

I will get some pics up soon and it took over a month to get.... but right now i am battling some of the holes, i think i have to tap them out to even get the screws in for the headlight.... and i imagine i will have to do rest for the front.

As for the dynomat, where do ya get some of that and cost?


But over all they look good with a few small flaws.

No custom fees , unless you are counting the $288 for shipping
