    Finally got my fairings back

    I'm so freakin excited. I finally got my fairings back today. ALL scratches, broken parts, etc. are GONE. The guy did a good job, you can't even know those fairings were damaged. Even the belly pan had some bad scratches...all gone. Now the only thing is, I have to buy the decals for the right side tail section, and those are stupidly expensive. When I buy it, he will stick it to the tail section and clearcoat it and then the bike will be perfect. (anyone can hook me up for that sticker? ) The bike will handle so much better now, and be faster for sure.

    Yup....he's had the parts since October... A few weeks ago, I was suppose to get them...then he was not calling me and I tried to reach him by phone, went to his house, etc...about 3-4 days ago, he finally tells me that all my parts, along with a customer chopper parts, all fell down from the table they were placed on (the table fell down or something and all the parts slid), and he had to start over again because they were scratched.

    It would probably be cheaper to get someone to make the decal then to buy it at the dealership.

    WHO can do this? It's got like a sparkly, shimmery look to it...and it's two tones (two colors, white and silver I think)

    They're not "flashy"....it's just the stock stripes of the EX500...

    Looks like the tail graphics are $38.40 per side on BikeBandit.com

    IMO... go with stock instead of having someone try and match it... worth the $40.00...

    Someone already hooked me up to have the stock one almost to the cost...I'll pay about $25.00 plus shipping. So I'll save a little..
