those are the suzuki oem fairing and belly pan, as far as I am aware they have not been made in years. they do occasionally show up on ebay -- there's a fairing and a (beater) belly pan for sale now, neither has mounting hardware

I've got a 02 GS500 Accessory Catalog I downloaded from somewhere and I checked the part numbes at RonAyers parts fisch and both the spoiler and fairing are marked discontinued. Guess they were dropped since 02, they were about $350 each, kinda pricey.
I put the catalog in my public folder of my Yahoo Briefcase, but don't know if it will connect. Could be some are available somewhere if you check all the listed parts fisches by part number. Found my 02 rack that way.

Of course you guys had to tell him about the fairing on ebay. I was hoping it would go cheap. It's already painted for my bike and everything. Anyway, not too whine to much but I would have been outbid by 30 bucks anyway, they want $25 for shipping. Damn the life of a student!

The second one is my bike and yep, they're the OEM fairings... My belly fairing got smashed in my wreck but I didn't have the headlight fairing on at the time so I still have it. If the insurance totals my bike, it might be up for sale soon, but I need to hang on to it for a few more weeks.

They stop making accessories for discontinued models fast. I can't get an OE solo cowl for my SVS. I bet they make the accessories strictly for bumping the price of new bikes, so when the bike's no longer new, let it go...

Yeah leave that chin fairing alone on ebay. I could really use it as a master for a mold, after fixing it of course.
Stephen... if I do not get the one from ebay, do think by chance I may be able to get the chin fairing from your bike?

Sorry my chin fairing is no more... it got smashed in my accident. I have the headlight fairing still as it was off my bike at the time of the accident.

I'm glad you're OK, hope any physical injuries heal up quick so you can get back to riding once you have a running bike.
May I ask where you got those CF-look side cover emblems? They're probably cheaper than the OEM ones and look a lot better to boot.

I'm fine, here is the thread in case anyone wonders what happened... http://www.gstwins.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16892&highlight=stephen+goes
The CF stickers were a group buy several months ago but I wasn't in on the group buy, I bought them second hand from another member who didn't use his. They weren't cheap, I think I gave him like 35 bucks for 2. I doubt there are anymore around, but you could check by asking around.
