Does anyone have an opinion on Nice Cycle Fairings. They look pretty legit but with everything you hear about aftermarket fairings I don't want to spend that kind of money without being sure. Some other forums i was on said that these fairings beat out auctmarts hands down when it comes to quality especially paint so if anyone knows anything lay it down.

Thanks

have used hotbodies, sharkskins, and attack bodywork.  the attack bodywork is pricey, but the quality and fit-up are unsurpassed.  just remember, you get what you pay for.

Shark Skinz as far as I know is the only one out of the three to make a street kit. Any one know how much it costs to ship them. I guess now it is between the shark kit or buying a replacement left side fairing and repainting the whole bike. The last being the cheapest. Any reason to go shark skinz over stock besides maybe weight savings.

Is the plastic just scratched? If so, you may want to look into Track Wraps:

I think I am going to just buy an oem left lower fairing and prep and paint the whole bike. That seems like the best and cheapest option I have right now. Thanks guys for the replies. When I finely get some cash flowing I'll post up some pics of the result.

I found those same prices a few days ago. What I meant to say is if the color on the new one dosent match up due to fading and what not than I would paint the whole bike. If it does than i will just order some touchup paint and go to town on the other stuff.

ya I have been checking ebay daily but so far nothing in the right color has come up. Im still broke so there is still time for something to surface. Either that or plan B which is to repaint the whole bike. With the repaint all i will have to pay for is the fairing and paint so that isnt a bad option

I have a tank Cody if you need one. It's black, and obviously for my '06. I'm pretty sure it should fit, but just bring your bike over to the house and we can check it out.

Hey thanks Randy but my tank never hit the ground. It was just the leftside fairing and the engine cover. As far as those 06 fairings you have I dont think those fit my bike.
