<---- Happiest Dude EVER!!!!! (Pics 56k beware).

[Danny500]

To begin with, I got a 500 dollar part from e-bay for about 100 bucks. It was pretty sweet.

Well, it's an OEM, NOS cowl for a GS500E... chin spoiler if you will. Now I was sooo worried about mounting hardware and figuring out what I was gonna do because the seller had said that there was NO hardware included.

Well, I get the box today and shake it and what do I hear "chingalingaling"... hardware!

I was sooo psyched. Not only is it a brand new cowl (even though it's red and I'll have to get it painted). But the OEM hardware is included!






PSYCHED!!!!

Oh OK, when stuff like this happens you have to pay tax to the buddha.
Now on top of that, you're running a red cowl on a black bike. There is an additional red to black surcharge.
PM me for details.
Cool.

Hah.. too late, 2nd coat of black just went on about 15 minutes ago.. However I will forward you the .02cents per bracket.

(I'm still giddy  )

Very nice! You're one lucky guy!

[scottpA_GS]

Very cool, I always wanted one but couldnt part w/ the $$$

Mine was an Ebay steal too.  $20 nabbed the basket case that resides on my bike
when I got it, the side pictured was fractured, and one of the bolt holes was just gone.  A little fiberglass and a well done (if I do say so myself) garage paintjob, and the end result is pictured above.

Didn't get an extra clamp by any chance did ya?

That looks damn good! I was actually thinking of doing the same stripe idea with the same dark gray that's in my decals on my bike!

Clear coats go on tomorrow (hopefully if it doesn't rain). She's all wet-sanded and ready to go!

[Roadstergal]

Who makes it?

That actually looks like the same red as on my FZ, and I've been looking for a deal on a chin fairing on it.  Damned if I'm going to pay top dollar for a chunk of plastic.

[Danny500]

So, got her painted up nice and installed, more pics in daylight to come... too much reflection of garage floor.



Dan

[Yev]

Yeah, we need more pics!

[Danny500]

Did a sort of 'shoot' today.. here's a few good ones.

Looks Sweet! A gray stripe would be the business.

[Yev]

Yeah, that looks bad asss.

[ATLRIDER]

   Looks good.

You've motivated me to install mine.  Gotta paint it and missing a bracket. 
If anyone's has just 1 bracket, please give me a shout.

[fred]

 Very cool! I like the way that turned out a lot.
