Fairings from total-marts any good?
I have a 96 F3 and I'm still kinda new to buying Chinese fairings. I ordered some fairings from the Chinese manufacturer total-marts and I'm curious on what's going to come in the mail. Has anyone ever bought from total-marts before and if so were they good or did I just waste my money on some crap.

As I understand it , there are only a handful of companies making these fairings for re-sellers. At least a few years ago when I got mine there were.
I have a set that came from auct-mart (sp?)
I have to say aside from the rigidity of the aftermarket fairings (they dont flex nearly as well as the OEM), They were a little tricky to fit because of how rigid they are , but by no means difficult.
.
The paint was nice and they looked sharp but could have used a thicker coat, I did scrape a little putting the tail on trying to get it into place (again the flexibility issue)
They fit extremely well. All the holes were pre drilled and lined up fine.
Ive had them on for 3 years now and absolutely no complaints .
Theres no way they are going to survive a fall they'll just snap Im guessing. But when I can replace the whole set for the cost of one OEM piece, Im ok with that.
If they are half as good as the ones from auct-mart , you should be happy enough with them.
As always , your mileage may vary , would be nice to know who they get them from though.

96 F3 fairings
I finnaly got mine in the mail today. I ordered them on August 12th and got them September 9th. They actually look very nice .I haven't gotten the chance yet to see how well they fit . But from what I've seen so far for the center headlight fairing there's little brass threaded eyelets which I'm very impressed by. I honestly was expecting flimsy toy plastic with the paint job being as blurry as the picture. But it wasn't it was great
