there really aren't many (if any) aftermarket appearance parts specifically for the GS.  You have to figure out (or search this forum to see what others have done) which parts will work for the GS.  A LOT of it is canabalizing stock parts from other bikes.  With a dremel tool, some patience and a little imagination, there's a lot you can hook up.

some common stuff includes:
buell lightning dual headlights
buell blast turn signals
various tail sections (I think there's a couple R6 tails mounted on member bikes)
various swingarm and fork swaps


There are also a few members who make custom parts for the GS.  Check the for sale forum, I think they are sticky threads at the top of the first page.  JamesG makes solo racing tails and fairings, another guy makes rear huggers.

If you poke around in the general discussion forum (play with the search tool), you will find that just about evrything has been tried.
