Default Need new fairings

Hi all,
I need to get all new fairings for my 01 F4i. I have been looking around at sites and I can't bring my self to trust the oversea sites. Does anyone know if any of them are reliable and provide a good product? Or are there any US sites with a good reputation? Thanks

youll most likely be better off peicing together a set for craigslisy/ebay/junk yard and fixing/painting them to how you want.

I would buy OEM pieces off ebay or go for fiber glass from a reputable shop in the US and get it painted, I have tried the china fairings and they are a true waste of money. I ended up getting sharkskinz, they are rather expensive but very high quality and strong.

i have a china front fairing, it fits fine just doesnt flex as well as oem. I deal with a lot of fairings with repairing, painting, and airbrushing and oem is the way to go 95% of the time. Fiberglass is for show/track bikes, a drive way fall will crack everything. ebay/china fairings are good if your on a budget and have frame sliders or stunt bars. with out protecting the fakes they will break. Oem FTW no flaw other than cost
