Yesterday a few of the Florida Crew got together and had Paul the Fairing Man from Jacksonville come down to the Miami area and do painted inner fairings for a few of us. Paul did an outstanding job (and put up with a lot of ribbing from us!)....quick, professional, and a ton cheaper than I would have paid the dealership!. For significantly less than what HD charges for just the part itself, Paul did all the installation labor and even re-installed my HD fairing-mounted GPS holder and saved my chrome gauge accents for use on the new fairing. Its amazing what a difference it makes in the look of the bike.
Many thanks to Gabe (Fire-Medic) for hosting and putting up with us, and to the rest of the Florida Crew members that I met and made it a fun afternoon.

$400 OTD. Would have been $350 but he had to charge a bit extra because of the work on the GPS mount and the fact that the black fairing he got from me had 3 holes in it because of the mount. Paul shows up with a fairing painted your color and exchanges it out for your black one. Saves me the trouble of trying to sell it or being without my ride while its out being painted, and he can keep his prices down. HD charges $549.95 for the painted fairing and you still have to deal with the removal, swap, and re-install, so it worked for me

I agree with others, the bars and painted fairing looks killer on you bike. But like you said, 600 bucks for bars. WoW.
