I dont have any pics of one but it will be just a simple case of cutting the VFR headlight mounts off and making a small bracket from flat piece off 2-3mm alloy to take up the difference in the front mount.

Unfortunately that upper does not incorporate the mids although i have thought about bonding them together to make it a 1 piece unit.

Test fitted the carbon lowered and sp1 calipers and brackets, also used new standard looking stainless bolts as the old ones were mangled, just need to split them and rebuild the calipers ready for new pads and fluid!

Carbon lowers fitted VERY well for those interested in tyga figment of panels, only problem looks to be the carbon fairing infill, one of the edges in the top right o the picture shows a corner of the infill over hanging where the upper will go...... Nothing a dremal won't sort out mind!!

i wouldnt use stainless bolts on the caliper mounts, they arnt tensile and could snap with a heavy fistful,

I was warned and swapped for titanium ones!

Hear what you're sayin but but funds don't allow right now, ti is the long term goal though for sure.

Put some high tensile steel bolts in then, they are not expensive. Why take the risk with brakes?
