| If I'm honest, I'd buy them. They don't look too bad, regardless of what people have said about the panels not lining up properly. We really only have luke_@_york as evidence of this. They have sold quite a few units by the looks of things and have 100% feedback so can't be all, but don't forget, you will have an import tax to pay on it though. |

| Think the tax varies, my mate only had to pay £45.00 but this could be upto £150.00???.If you go for it ask the senders to put "sample" on the package this is what saves you the £££'s i think. |

From the seller's auction he states...
"5 I will Mark as Gift or Sample(No VAT), " |

| I wouldn't go too much on the feedback though. Nearly all of the buyers are no longer registered and there names seem to along this kind of line:- gdhsgdfyctsv........ |

I not sure if the gskldghjhj name thing is something to do with chinese letters? but all but 1 are no longer registered users(i smell a rat) and if u click on a buyer their feedback looks similar .If u interested why not mail the genuine uk buyer(last 1)and ask. |

I TELL YOU WHAT, AS BOLD AS CAN BE, YOU PAY FOR WHAT YOU GET!!!! i bought these and what you see in the pics and what you get is 2 diff matters, this seller on ebay has a few accounts, hence a few ppl selling the same fairings, rear cowl is 1 piece insted of 2 piece, trust me it barely fits over the rear radiator bottle, wiring etc, like you think your going to snap it to get it over, then next problem keyhole for key access to rear seat over 25mm away from where it should be, so you have to cut a hole in fresh painted fairings then it looks ugly either as a egg shape or whatever other shape that it is not meant to be. No plasic mounting points within the fairings for rear lights to screw into and stay in place, no lugs for farings to go into under fuel tank, no pre made holes so you have to drill them all out, mounting points do not align, rivets are not flush against plastic fairings and painted over so looks bodgy..would you want to buy a buy with crappy fairings??? you will need to spend same amount you spent on them just to fix them up, oh and btw they are thin plastic as well so top front faring has no stiffness to it, its like wafer then virtually..so when you gun your bike at 200km/h or even a avg 140km/h you want thin fairings holding you up against those wind forces?? i wouldnt..
and another thing text is dodgy, is not perfect as in pics, blue jeans was blaf jeins logo, honda was so spread out and uneven it just looked like crap.. you will look at your pride and joy of a bike in disgust..
as you see im a fan of the fairings..NOT!! try the "better" places that is out there that you actually see on the bikes fitted well the excuse they left on me was we listed it as "slight modification needed" slight and major are the same word to them i think...
good luck with it |
Catch me if you can... |

I bought some for a CBR954, they were utter crap relating to the decals lining up, they must have their kids putting them on I reckon.
The biggest problem was that they were packed poorly, arriving BADLY broken in several places. I couldnt even patch them up with fibreglass, they had to get professionally done.
They also weighed an absolute ton, the fibreglass was more than 10mm thick in places.
The feedback is crap, don't ask me how they do it, but there are at least 12 sellers selling the same product from the same location. When they first started selling, the actual positive feedback was no higher than 75%  |

I was looking at them and their seems to be 2 sellers, one from china and one from hong kong, the china seller looks to have well fake feedback.
I recently bought a aprilia af1 off a guy from cramlington who also had a nc30, said he got some off the hong kong guy in camel colours, and we where on about peoples experiences in them, he said he cant fault his, they where made out of plastic, very well packaged and of great fitment and quality, and he also marked them down as a gift.
I also have a friend on msn who bought some for his nc29, from the same hong king seller in repsol colours, he thought they where great for the price as well till i pointed out on his lowers it has "RK spark plugs" and "NGK chains".
some people may complain about stuff not lining up 100% exactly perfect but upon helping my friend fit rizla decals to his gsxr before the lacquer got shot over the top i can say its very very difficult!
If you want a perfect job you have to pay the perfect money and go to somewhere like cyclone paint shop or dream machine and its very expensive! |
