Default What's the deal with these fairings?

I'm browsing on Ebay and found all these different fairings from Hong Kong, the price seems to low to be true, Shipping is a lot but still sounds like a deal. Has anyone here tried them?, let me know.

I have heard a couple of people state that tey don't fit properly and they had to make some adjustments to them (i.e. cutting new/larger holes). Then again, I can't think of ANY aftermarket fairings that I havent heard any problems about the way they fit.

they are junk. paint is terrible, starts flaking and chipping off. plastic is flimsy. nothing fits like it should.

The last guy sounds a little bitter. Maybe he received a bad set. I have the Repsol plastics and I love it. YES I HAD TO MAKE A FEW MINOR ADUSTMENT AND FIND DOME BOLTS SO THAT IT WOULD FIT CORRECTLY but take a look at my before and after pictures and tell me what you think. As far a then being flimsy. I rhino the inside of the plastic to make them stronger. I did the same to my 929rr plastic also to strentgth them. You dont even see the rhino

And here is my 929rr 2001 before I sold it. Remember I RHINO ALL MY PLASTIC ON THE INSIDE TO MAKE THEM STRONGER!
