[Tanx] Good news! Fairings!

[John Borella]

$150 to paint an entire fairing? Rustoleum? I'll let you be the guinea pig on this one.

I cannot say if it is legit but it sure seems legit to me. The website doesn't look fly by night and it's pretty specific. I emailed the guy and he got back to me pretty quickly.  I asked if he could have fairings painted locally and he quoted me $150 euro.  Not to go too deeply into this but the nature of the exchange didn't set off any alarm bells for me.

Lately I have noticed that shipping from Europe is cheaper than it was.  I just ordered some dirt bike armor from England and even with the shipping it was cheaper than I could get it in the US.  Also, I think the Greek economy is in the tank. So, it's sort of like arbitrage.

Sure it's legit? Those prices are really cheap & they quote 30 Euro to ship the entire 3 piece fairing to the U.S. I get small parts from Italy & the Netherlands & it costs that much.

I've been in touch and they sell fairings and ship to the USA.  Fairings come in white gelcoat.
