Wow, I wish I knew cause thoes peices would look good in c/fibre, but I'm sure some1 here can tell you.

The lower fairing you can get off of www.kawasaki.com as for the nose no one makes it as of yet, trust me i looked. I have a guy who will paint it to look like carbon and it will cost 1/3 the price. my bike will be back from paint either today (MON) or tuesday. I will have pics before the weekend.

I stand corrected. the last time i was on their site they didnt list anything for the 05. I never went back cause i saw the price of the 03-04 stuff.:( WOW is that **** expensive[8D]

The phrase you get what you paid for applies here. I wanted to save some money and purchased the Ho* B*d*es race plastic and the stuff is just plain JUNK. Poor fit, rough edges, finish isn't what I would call just sand and paint. Yeah the stuff is light, but will all the primer filler that is needed for a decent finish, it will weigh more than stock plastic by the time it is painted. A waste of money, I plan to sell the stuff at a big loss and buy the Oppracing kit.

anybody have the opp kit on their bike? im looking at getting the street upper, the lower, front fender and some mirrors. curious to know how hard all is to install? thanks

RE: carbon fiber?
 

i wouldnt think it would be any harder than installing regular parts... as much as that $hit cost you shouldnt have to modify it

RE: carbon fiber?
 

Any aftermarket body parts will be harder to install than the factory parts. You will need to check the fit of the parts and then carefully mark and drill the holes for the mounting points. The lowers will be held on by Dzus fasteners, which will take more time to get them aligned and drilled in the right locations. Same goes for the wind screen, holes must be drilled. So there is some time and skill involved!
