$250 for this jap LHS panel? Other panels found at wreckers

[Phazuka]

Put a want ad out on Findapart (thanks Rubenastley for the 411)

It has some scratches and no HONDA sticker. Decals look genuine but looks like a jap panel refurbished in tricolor and someone forgot the HONDA decal. should I tell the wrecker's that has it to get stuffed?





Other panel I found at a wreckers is unknown origin, I'll drive down there tomorrow to see it in person. Looks ok except for the fuckin fox sticker.



replacement nosecone at the same wreckers looks like it has UV fading and no top clearcoat.

Buy some new one's from Ozzy Steve or Omar, They have Great stuff (Fairings and other things), Instead of second hand crap that needs work, JUST SAYING, But if you like working on stuff like me then go for it, I work on small engines every day and come home and work on my fzr250dy crap thing , Cause I can, But that's my hobbie, Oh, And Beach Fishing, New Thread coming up!!!.

Nah, I want to try and keep the bike looking original, with original jap parts. I can get Simon to fix up any imperfections if my original fairings can't be saved.

Im pretty sure I have some original tri-colour fairings here, which you could possibly salvage if your really after some original ones? How badly are yours, as you could potentially just fix yours!

Some have the stickers and some don't, so i'll have a look for you.

What specifically are you looking for? I know the nosecone I have has a crack and some holes, but they can be filled no worries if thats what your after!? Pretty sure the sides aren't too bad, possibly scratched and can be salvageable though...

I guess my question is are you going to pull the stickers off, clean up the fairings and then put more stickers and clear coat on afterwards!?

I can ask Simon to fix up any panels I'm going to replace. This is the dramas on the LHS panel that I'm either looking into fixing or replacing with anotehr panel.

KK, i'll see what I have.

piss easy to fix those cracks, and they are below horizon, so won't need painting after

What the hell does that mean? lol...

I gather you do fairing repairs and painting as a job?
Just curious to see how you fix stuff like that if your able to elaborate with detail and photos if your doing it!?

I gather you dont need me to check panels then phakuza?
