Default My winter project

So I got this mod from here https://cbrforum.com/forum/f4i-main-...ail-mod-93232/ I am not claiming this was my idea, but that the thread totally inspired me. Its not much right now, but I'm just trying to figure out how I'm going to do this LOL. So basically its a 1000rr tail going to be molded to parts from an f4i tail. Sub frame is untouched, and this is purely a cosmetic upgrade. I found both tails at $40 a piece so I'm out $80 plus my time if I screw this up (in my mind not bad). So I'm pretty much doing this for the hell of it, I've always been a hands on type guy so I thought this would be cool to experiment. In the end I want to make it look like it came from the factory that way. My plan is to paint it the oem white and add the f4i decals on the tail. I'll update pics for the people who are interested. thanks.

I'm going to be watching this. what seat and what a tail light will you be using? And will you be able to use a f4i undertail?
