Hugger is straight forward just a little fiddley getting the brake hose bracket threaded but nothing needed trimming or adjusting, quality of finish on carbon effect v/good.
Fender extenda they call the Flicka, again easy to fit, I removed the front mudguard for ease of fitting as you need to drill 3 holes (drill supplied) I also sealed the inside join to guard against "rain/mud dribble). Again excellent gloss balck finnish.

Cheers mate all been a big help..was looking for a blue hugger but might purchase the carbon fibre one, and go for the gloss black fender.

Fitted a red fox gloss black hugger to my K9 and it rubbed on the back of the tool box when suspension bottomed out.

Put a perfect cresent shaped indentation in the toll box holder about 2" by 1.5" and about 2mm deep.

Noticed it after about 100 miles after fitting, thankfully it hasn't got any worse since doing another few hundred and hasn't damaged the tool box or the hugger.

HTH.
