If they're the same then I really don't care either way. I take it it's fake carbon.

Theres a load of that crap on the bike anyway.

All plastics removed and so much fell apart when being removed I've decided to go for new plastics as it is a lot to repair and lots of bits missing or so small it's ridiculous! Pics to follow!

On the plus side all new bits bar doglegs fitted! Need another bod for that!

The Ace looks like a real thug naked! It's tempting!

As requested........

This used to be the nose cone, the white bit in the gap is the tape that used to hold it, also check the bottom right for more damage.

All the little pieces that aren't lying on the tarmac somewhere in Hampshire!

I think she looks quite sexy like that! May just give her a polish and slap a headlight on her?

Got loads more pics of the damage to both side panels, clock surround and bellypan, but the ancient laptop is taking too long to upload the pics!

That's fixable.

You don't need to shove the little bits back in, just fill the gap.

All those little bits plus the ones that are missing are the bolt holes in the plastics, if I fill 'em in I will not be able to put 'em back on.
