I'm REALLY happy with how it turned out considering that I've never really done anything like this before.






The chin fairing isn't as hard as I would like it to be considering the abuse it takes.

It's super glossy and I haven't even touched it with rubbing compound.

Chin fairing is flamed. The front fender isn't because I thought it would look cluttered...

That's really cool that you did it yourself. The results look professional from here.
