The term "You Get What You Pay For" sometimes applies in life...
Haha
I could have told you that before you even ordered them. Sorry you are having to deal with that....
No No my friend, This is a Buddies Bike. and yes he is pissed.
Bad thing about it, The company he got them from is in the states and didnt bother telling him they would be coming from overseas
If things arent resolved I will be posting the name of the company
Yes!! Lesson to us all!! DON'T BUY CRAP FROM HONG KONG!! In this case though his friend didn't know the parts were coming from Hong Kong.
Was it a reputable company in the US that he got them from? He should be able to get his money back.
on those...wow!!!
Throw up the name anyway, regardless of wether or not they make things right nobody else should risk ordering from them.
Hang those garbage plastics on the garage wall, they look good from a distance and they will serve as a good reminder, my crashed nose is on my wall.

I hope your friend ACTUALLY got these from Hong Kong, otherwise the bashing is undeserved. Hong Kong =/= China, the goods I've purchased that were made in HK have been on the same level of quality as the better stuff made in the U.S.A.

that sucks, plus I hope I dont get you even more ungry by saying that made the bike look like a zx14 
Nobody in the US makes plastic fairings. As a matter of fact, we don't make much of anything here in the US any more other than cars and airplanes. Those good old days of "Made in the USA" are long gone forever.
All the aftermarket plastics come from Hong Kong. The reason they are so cheap is they are stamped out of a solid sheet of plastic. Unlike the factory plastic made with a process called "Injection Molding". No two pieces of Hong Kong plastic will come out the same. I'm not sure but I am highly suspicious that all the Hong Kong plastics come from the same factory? If anyone knows for sure, please share?
My friend GregBob has purchased two sets of Hong Kong plastic for his GSXR1K and both fit pretty well. Had to drill out a few holes but once it was on, for the price one couldn't complain. From 20 feet away, you couldn't tell the difference from OEM other than color.
Keith (Skydiver) bought a set for his GSXR1k and it looks good on his bike. He purchased it through a company in Denver who claims their plastic is made with Injection Molding but I doubt it really is? Ask Keith about what he thinks of his.
Bottom line is, if you are looking for prefection, don't bother with the super cheap Hong Kong plastic.
