I get compliments all the time on the fairing. From the front most think its a stock Harley fairing. Then they look at inner and see the 6x9 speakers and realize its aftermarket.
The gel coat black was good enough match for my vivid black 10 deluxe. It fit great, I have 14" wild ones so I filed out the mounting holes a bit to move my bars out more.
I also put my own radio n speakers in. I saved some bucks.
My friends didn't know the difference in color, if your a perfectionist AND have the money go ahead n spend it
Lucky you I can't.

Call Reckless. Mine was tight, but spot on!
Rubber bushings are replaced with all metal, all came with it.
Turn spots out, makes the 'King open up and say "Ahh..." (LOL) and the fairing is on. I leave the wind deflectors and the lower fork baffle on all the time, no issues.
Mine is off most of the time, but will be putting it back on soon. Temps here are still 70's - 50's. That's my cold weather setup, really keeps the wind off my hands. I went with the Polk Audio/Infinity (Both Marine) Bluetooth Setup, does as expected. They matched my two tone root beer perfectly.
Good folks, had mine about 3 years.
