Default Fender elimimator...Any company offer one in ABS plastic/flat black finish?

Hello,
I'm looking/searching for a ABS plastic fender eliminator for my red 02 CBR600 F4i in a flat black finish(similar to OEM finish/material)and was wondering if there are any aftermarket companies out there that offer this? I really like the look of the painted to match eliminators but don't want to mess with the headaches of the chipping that is inevitable from the rear tire. I also do not want to add a rear hugger because I personally do not like that look so that leaves me searching for a flat/matt/natural finishedblack fender eliminator. Does anyone know of a company offering something like this?

Thanks,
-John

Not sure if this is what you're looking for, or if you want a whole undertail. I used a Minus One fender eliminator and i've been happy with it. It's a textured black metal piece that flows from under the tail section to meet the stock tail light. They have some pics on their website, unfortunately i don't have any good pics of the bottom of mine. Hope that helps some.

I just put a pimpbike one on mine. Love it. Plus I kept my taillight, which is the LED integrated. They sell on eBay too.

Like the guy above I installed a Minus One fender eliminator too. I posted a few pics of mine although the picture quality isn't the best. Heres the link to that post.

Now your're makin me rethink my tire hugger purchase I was about to make. I got the yellow painted undertail, knowing it would get chipped, so i was going to get a black tire-hugger to prevent it, but now I don't know. I have yet to see a yellow F41 with a black hugger, does it look stupid? Anyone have a pic of one?

I just installed a Clear Alternatives integrated tail light for my signals. The kit also comes with a bracket to mount some exterior turn signals but youd have to drill a few holes in the metal plate to pull the wire through. As for the plate light I don't have one but the tail light kind of lights it up so no problems so far.

I put a Olson Composite Design fender eliminator, along with the clear alternatives light. Can't really see it to well in my photo, but the image from the link works good.....

With the pimpbike one, I have a few things. My rear taillight is an LED. Red for brakes, amber integrated for turn signals. For the license illumination, I have a sheet of ABS plastic with a nice white LED mounted on it that fires down on it. Works awesome and looks clean. I would upload a picture, but every time I try, it says it's too big.
