Here is what she looks like, i should have circled where the gaps are but i tried to take close enough pics to where you can see.


The paint over all i like alot....BUT damn i had to do alot of cutting, modding, glueing and screwing to just get it to look like this

You can see where i had to zip tie the rear to the sides. And i still havent glued back on the rear mounting tabs, ...ya i had to cut them off to get it to fit

Also can see the gaps from the seat to the rear faring, big gap in front by headlight and talight is off center.

Tail was the bitch part, for some reason wit the stock mounting points the tail sat ALOT lower then the light itself...so had to rig up the back, and glue it.


I am for the most part happy but if this things go south i just making her a street fighter

Beware when buying these style farings..

Paint looks good, fitment.....not so much. I guess you get what you pay for. I too would contact them and send them pictures and demand something to be done. If you paid with paypal I would start a claim.

hmmm.. I pretty sure that after 30-40 days of purchase you cant open a claim wit pay pall..

I doubt the company would do anything if i did complain, i read few areas were all they do is have you send back for refund but then ya still have to pay the BS 288 shipping and handling..

Paypal gives you 90, FYI. You open a case, and just say you're not going to ship the item back unless they cover shipping, and don't agree to any other terms. They're either going to cover it, or tell you to keep the fairings and give you a refund. Probably the latter, as once they have the mold done, the fairings themselves only cost like $150 to produce, incl paint and labor.

As soon as you file a case, PayPal takes the money form them and holds it, until you agree that they've met your needs. If after 90 days they don't do what you want, PayPal gives you the money back, INCLUDING SHIPPING. Take it from someone with an 11-year old ebay Power Seller account with 100% Positive feedback: PAYPAL ***HATES*** SELLERS.

Then, you sell the fairings to some poor bastard on this board.



And put a ****ing shirt on, for God's sake!

Yeah i think fairings are a huge rip off! Either wayyy too expensive or only get pieces of junk. Or both Same with headlights..why do the housings cost so freakin much?! Maybe i'm missing something here..
