Well, you've got a few choices. That lower cowl is yellow and the decals/stripes are black.

        I was in the same situation with my wifes 2006. The left side was scuffed by the previous owners. I searched ebay for an inexpensive lower left cowl that was fully intact with minimal scuffing. I sanded it, cut a hole in it for frame sliders then had a friend paint it. Then I put the decals on it from Honda. As it happens, I just did finished it yesterday. Here are the before and afters.

        • You can have it repainted yellow and then put new Honda decals on it.
        • You can purchase a new replacement one from Honda for about $375 plus shipping. That will be a perfectly matched painted with decals and foam padding on the inside ready to install.
        • You can do a search on ebay for a used one.

        I needed this! Thank you!

        How do I find out the paint code for my bike? It's an 03 954RR, the gray/black.

        It should be on a label, usually under the seat. It's funny your bike has the same gray as mine. It's called Titanium Metallic.

        Check ColorRites site.

              How much did that run you?

              Keeping in mind that I (my friend) painted both lower cowls so I purchased the decals for both sides.

              The fairing from ebay was $100 including shipping. $200 for all decals ($100 per side). My friend didn't charge me to paint the fairings, but I gave him $200 anyway. He mixed 1 pint which was enough to do both lower cowls with just a little bit left over. He already texted me saying he won't keep the money, but we'll see.

              Wow... I think I'm just going to keep my eyes out for a new fairing.. for just one side it's not worth the trouble.
