Default Do OEM fairings always have F4i and CBR logos?

I have a '03 F4i which was vandalized a while ago. So I'm looking into options to fix/replace the fairings.

I was looking at some pictures online of the same model, and noticed that they commonly have "F4i", "Honda", and "CBR" decals. Like this bike:



But my bike never had these decals (see image below). With OEM fairings are these decals clear coated, or in otherwords could the previous owner have removed the decals. Or is there a chance that I have non-oem fairings?

New OEM plastics will have all the sticker and decals already stuck on. But they're not under any clear coat, so you can peel them off without too much trouble. Keep an eye on ebay, sometimes you can find fairing in your color that have already had the stickers removed

there is a chance, but your bike looks to be in pretty good shape so i bet theyre OEM. the gas tank decals are the only ones that have clear coat on them.

It's very possible the bikes been repainted so they had to get new graphics, and went with the wings without the badges.

My OEM 954 plastic did not come with stickers. Separate part number for the decals.

If you buy the "Cowl Set" it should have had the decals on it (and the associated cost), though like I said, you can get the decals by themselves.

Ding Ding! Nothing comes together. Whether its hardware to mount the part, or in this case stickers, they are never sold as one.

My F4i fairings from ronayers.com came with all the stickers on them already, my brother's GSX-R 750 fairings did not. It seems that it's hit and miss...

That's because Ronayers.com sells "Cowl sets" for the F4i, dont know about the GSXR.
