Lower fairing questions
 

Afternoon all,
I've got some lowers (Thanks Mouldy :cool:) as part of a Rizla set of body panels (except missing the RHS upper though), so decided to try fitting them today. It has led me to a couple of questions though:

-I am missing the black air ducts. Any idea where I can get some replacement ones? (These chaps): I've cunningly used filler and created smoother ones. They look better than the black extra ones would have! :cool:

-I also need the rubber grommits to mount the panels. Where can I get my hands on some grommits?
Got them! Woo! :cool:
(The little black dots on the above picture)

Finally, here is her new look. It feels incomplete but sadly, without the RHS upper, I probably won't go fully Rizla. I'd like to know what people think I should do. Keep a half race-style? Just sand it down a repaint it yellow? Do something completely different? Opinions greatly received!

do a search for air scoops

defently re paint them, it doesnt look right to me.

Thanks husky, I didn't think to try 'scoops'. I tried most others (ducts, vents, intakes :rolleyes:)

Cheers Chompy. yeah, they look weird as they are. Should I go for standard flat yellow, or maybe something different, e.g. lower half black?

By the way, I got my hands on some grommets from my work engineering department. Bargain! :cool:

Full yellow.. and take them off. They look weird like that. D:

Re: Lower fairing questions
 

Sorry, I should have added; I did take them off. Yes, they look crap and I still had to get the grommets. Got the grommets... now I face a long slog with the wet/dry to get the Rizla sanded down and keyed.
As well as half black, I was also considering keeping the black strip at the bottom (where the 'shopping list' currently is).

What is the cheapest way to get it resprayed (I'll do it myself to save the pennies. Is Hellfrauds standard bodge paint adequate, or is it really that bad?)

you might get away with it your self, but there is a place in portsmouth that will do it for about £40-£50 i got 3 wingmirrors sprayed 2 bikini fairings, 2 lower fairings and both rear fairings for £200 and amazing quality

Re: Lower fairing questions
 

Hmm... that's feasible. Pompey isn't too much of a journey for me. Do they have a website?

I am looking around for some quotes at the moment, but I have experience of spraying cars (just rattley celly cans mind) so I am not too worried about attempting it. It's just a cost balance really.
