RE: New Fairings
I just got a set off ebay from a seller in NV. I believe they are orginallyfrom Nice Cycle. I have yet to fit them, but laying next to the OEM parts they look pretty damn spot on. The paint is great, the graphics are sprayed on, not decals and then cleared over, much nicer then decals. The only decals are the 'CBR' and "600RR" and such, they were applied then cleared over as well...which is nice. I am very happy so far, I will repost when I fit them. Waiting untill I install the underglow kit, remove and rebuilt the rear shock etc.

RE: New Fairings
From looking at the raised lettering on the back they are made out of PPE, PPE +PA6 and ABS...whatever OEM used on a part is what the aftermarket company used on it....
Polyphenylene Ether (PPE) - A thermoplastic, linear, noncrystalline polyether obtained by the oxidative polycondensation of 2,6-dimethylphenol in the presence of a copper-amine-complex catalyst. Polyphenylene ether, also called polyphenylene oxide, is usually blended with polystyrene to improve its toughness and processability. Polyphenylene ether has excellent electrical properties, unusual resistance to acids and bases, and is processable on conventional extrusion and injection molding equipment. PPE is easily attacked by some hydrocarbons, although it resists many chemicals. Polyphenylene ether possesses excellent dimensional stability, low moisture absorption, and high mechanical and dielectric strength.
