Cool Body Kit for '08 CBR1000RR
I think this kit looks cool as hell! Oh and I'm thinking of changing mine for fun. Either the "Lucky Strike" or the "Rizla Suzuki" any thoughts? Btw I can get either kit for about $400 shipped.

Is the "kit" all new body work or just the stickers. 400 seems kinda cheap for a whole new set of body work and a little pricey for stickers.

Something else to think about is fitment. It's sounds cheap for full body work, so how well will it fit up to the mounting points? I've similar stuff posted up elsewhere, but I've never been able to find any kind of review. If it all mounts up fine without any problems, then I'd say go for it. But if you've gotta do extensive work to just get it to line up...

Well,I already have an aftermarket body kit and they can require some modding to make them fit perfectly but in my experience,so have race kits and even stock body work has required some Dremmel work to get it to fit right. Shit,I could tell you a horror story about Suzuki carbon fiber front and rear fenders if you're interested. Anyway,I,once again,didn't start this thread to defend Chinese plastic,they send me an email when they come up with a new kit and I thought it looked cool so...

The pictures look pretty good. If I was hard pressed for a full set of bodywork on the cheap and had the time to make it fit, then I'd honestly think about picking this stuff up.
Just curious, but did the kit for your Suzuki come from the same company? But I'd personally go for the "Lucky Strike" I think it looks the best of the three. That Rizla blue looks kinda homo

Should see whats out there for a 99TLS, may be cheaper than having mine painted.

I looked at everything they had, and didn't see anything for the 07-08 600rr. They don't have anything for the 929 or RC.
