After Market Fairings vs OEM Fairings?
My 2008 600rr was run over by an old man yesterday while it was parked in front of my house yesterday. He was kind enough to leave a note but i think he would of thought twice if he knew how much fairings cost. I found some aftermarket fairing kits from hong kong that are a quarter of the cost of honda. I was wondering if anyone has had any experience with them? One guy said the plastic is thin and cracks very easy. But i dont know if i believe him.

I've heard a lot of horror stories with really cheap Ebay fairings but I have heard a lot of good things from more reputable companies such as Delkevic, Autcmarts, CBRfairings.com. I bought a set of unpainted Delkevic fairings for my F4i so I can not comment on the paint quality but the plastic itself is great. Not thin, doesn't crack, fits great. I would look into that.

i have heard a lot of good things about www.cbrfairings.com
take a look and u'll see that they have a lot of choices for your yr of bike. stay away from ebay unless u find someone selling OEM.

I went with OEM. I only have 2 experiences with after market one. The tail china piece was sort of hard to put it on, but it went on. When I had minor accident, it broke in the so easy. If that was OEM, it would just got road rash. And I wanted CF tail, so I got one from china. It did not even fit. Something about their mold is slightly wrong. And I don't think plastic is as strong as OEM, in my opinion
