I assume they arent pre drilled either, that knocks the price down some too.

if they're like the Auctmart brand, i think they are pre drilled.

If you get what's in the pictures, then it looks like all the mounting holes are predrilled with the mounting tabs for the adjacent body panels.

Well then you ASSume wrong! They are pre-drilled,did you not read any of the reviews I posted for Mike? I did have to "clean-up" a few holes and I had to make a trip to the hardware store because they don't always use the factory hardware (plastic snappy things) but I doubt that it made the install take more than an hour longer than stock plastic. Considering it pushes $2000 for a stock body kit....

Yea tell me about it! I mean,race plastic can take a while to install,especially if you are all "OCD" and shit!

If you are REALLY cheap,I can get you a set of fiberglass fairings for $200 bucks,no shit! They are un-drilled,non-painted and they cut the body kit down to about 6 pieces or so from 23...

I like doing project bikes, so when if I ever make it back to the states I may have to find this stuff. A project that's done on a budget and comes out properly makes all the difference.

I have never had to install plastics before and dont look forward to drilling a set since I know I would mess it up my current and soon to be ex track bike had all that stuff done before i bought it. Guess we will see when I get something newer this year or next.

I bought a sharkskinz street upper and lower for my RC just after I bought it. Everything fit perfectly, predrilled, the headlights mounted in with no problem. Easiest bodywork I've done yet, but the upper and lower alone cost over $700 unpainted. But my main fairings went from 5 piece to 2 piece.
