Carbon Fairings
 
Hi,
Been looking through some pictures on my computer today and found a picture of a curvy with carbon fibre fairings on it... does anyone know who makes these?
Ideally I'd like carbon lowers as I'm spending some money doing mine up with lots of carbon bits (hugger, exhausts, exhaust guards, heel plates etc) and I recon carbon lower fairings would look the nuts.
Cheers
Dan

Could take a leaf out of tygaboy's book and make your own, or there was someone on here covered a set of fairings in carbon-effect tape stuff.

Actual carbon parts on a highly modified bike are OK, see zadars carbon-kevlar fuel tank...

I'd liken that to a burberry shooting jacket, rather than the burberry baseball cap that is carbon-effect tape :-P

That exhaust looks hot stuff... On my black sv! Not sure about the fairings though!

I know of a place that used to make a replica OEM one piece top fairing in carbon fibre, but not lower fairings. Are you sure it is carbon fibre or carbon look, as mentioned above?

Carbon fibre looks good but in small doses I reckon!

i'm looking at maybe getting the twinshack bodykit and then getting a mate of mine to make the lower second bit out of carbon.. i recon it could look really good if done well... I want it to be real carbon not carbon effect
