I bought the REAL Carbon-Fiber Dash for my 2009 FLHT from these guys. . It is good.
I had a little trouble getting it in place though, you have to start from one end and apply it torwards the other end. Otherwise you get bubbles. I think you will be happy for what you spent on it.

The picture looks like the whole inner fairing is covered. But the description says 6 pcs. Which is correct? I do like it though.

It is 6 pieces, with one real BIG one for the Speedo and Tach, that surrounds the speakers. That is the hard one to put one.

Ok, so it does cover the entire inner fairing. Looks like a good deal to me, if it doesn't look cheesy.
