Factory Color Matched units from HD are 530.00. That is what I was planning on ordering.

Sorry, I can't help. I thought it was funny you had this thread when I just finished looking at them. I can't decide if they are a good deal or not. Are you talking about the $399 ones. They look like a decent deal because they come with a glove box but you have to buy the hardware. I wonder if they will ship them just primed. Why didn't I just get a black bike? ha ha

Factory vented units painted to match for 530.00 do not sound that bad if the aftermarket are 400.00... figure in paint and you are better off with the factory units.

dang black I should have been a painter. That would help!

If you offer the vendor 300.00 they will take it.
Those knockoffs are about 90% the quality of the HD lowers, work fine, and look the part, but take in mind... there are lots here who frown on buying chinese knockoffs and you will hear it to no end.
If that doesn't bother you - doesn't me, I'm Asian - then get a set. They are great for 3 bills...
I would not buy them if you need to paint them.

I know of two individuals that have purchased the knockoffs from the "Fairing Factory" on Ebay. Both said the quality was good, paint was adequate (both vivid black) and both were happy with their purchase as they didn't have as much into them as OEM because they don't run them year round. Maybe that helps. FWIW, there are a lot of Non-USA built bashers everywhere. Your call

if you want to spend the money on the chinese take offs, that's your choice. and i will not bash you for it. but before you do, consider that genuine hd lowers, painted to match will run you $535.00 (vivid black) from zanottis. about $40.00 less if you go with denim black.
that comes complete. painted to match, with gloveboxes and all mounting hardware.
i know i gave you zanotti's price, but i would consider getting with jon (pc pain) here on the forum. he is the parts manager for horny toad hd in tyler tx, to see what kind of price he can get you. jon.horton@hornytoadhd.com
