I have the left and right mid fairings off my red 1098s that are mint. I converted my bike to a track bike and they are just sitting in my garage. Let me know if you are interested. Yeah you say you can get them painted, but is it really worth it? Are you getting the work done so cheap and to your satisfaction that you think its worth it? If it ends up being crap, then you wasted your money. These 2 pieces I have are beautiful.
I sold the nose (mint) to a local guy for if I remember correctly, $275. The tail I think went for somewhere in the same area, like 2-300$ range. Of course your cheapest price for OEM stuff is used. Retail OEM prices are just too high to me.
I have heard the chinese stuff is crud if you try to compare it to OEM. If you didnt compare it, then it might be OK. If you really want a mint looking beautiful 1098s, you likely wont be happy with that stuff.
