Chinese Fairings - Worth it?

Chinese Fairings - Worth it?
Who has them? How do they fit? And what "company" did you purchase them from?
I ask because my fairings are in good shape, but I am a perfectionist and considering having them repainted and redecalled. I am curious if going with a complete fairing set would be cheaper, easier, and less of a headache. Plus I would then have two sets of fairings, could repaint my factory fairings on my own time (ie over the winter), and if I fell in love with the Chinese ones I could sell the Honda ones to recoup my costs.
So are they worth a try at ~$450? Here's the ones I like (I am a sucker for the white '07, if it isn't obvious )

There are several reviews of HK fairings on here. Some good, some bad. Most a "you get what you pay for". The biggest factor is the seller. Not for getting the best quality or fit. I'm pretty sure they all use the same 1 or 2 suppliers.
The seller on eBay is extremely important in case anything goes wrong. You will most likely be beyond the 45 day dispute period when they finally arrive. So eBay / Paypal isn't going to be any assistance if there's a problem. So its up to how the seller handles his business.
