i just completely redid a 2004 636 for a friend of mine, and it's worth the time to try and find affordable factory plastic. the aftermarket fiberglass often doesn't line up just right and every piece becomes an hour long mounting job. if all the plastic is shot though going with a full aftermarket kit is probably the only way to do it without going broke.

I run Fibreglass for the track, its a lot less forgiving to fit but can be made to look good, (See Pic &gt it is drillable also just take your time.

I totally agree with ride4sport. Trying to fit aftermarket and stock plastics together is just a pain in the butt.

Ebay is your new best friend. You can get lowers for like $50. The upper is the most expensive at about $200+.

good luck man, and sorry about your wreck.
