Respray or new fairings?

I have part rebuilt my nc29 aside from the cosmetics. The existing fairings are in a serviceable state and am debating between a standard colour respray or buying replacement fairings from these guys:

Any thoughts on using these guys for replacement fairings please?

Im in the same situation - apart from a few missing panels!

I think the original panels painted may work out more cost effective in the long run.

The copys are never as good as the OEM, despite what they all say. And will they last.

Plus you will have to get the tank painted as well.


If you can get a full good quality respray for £300-£350 it may be the best option.

Have you read this ongoing saga on the VFR forum concerning chinese fairings..............

I think the fairings he has bought are from a shop called Parts 4 Bikes - which I now cant find on the net?

Waiting for an update................

Fact is copy replacement fairings are never going to live up to OE fairings, if you can live with that then go for it.

Found it -

I read on another forum that the guy removed his tank and posted it to them and they re-sprayed that as well so it all matches. Which may be a good option - postage cant be that much tanks are pretty light.

I wonder how much they would charge to re spray my own fairings? Hmmm?

No just waiting for the review from the admin guy.

This one also seems to have good rating from one VFR owner, also seems to be supplied with the air ducts and lower front 'v' panel.

Thank you for your link.
