    What colour/design did everyone go for?

    The fastest and best one is obviously black, closely followed by HRC (I have conformation of this, as every time I looked in my mirrors Jimbo was right there ) :D

    Red RR8 but changed the top fairing and mudguard to black as there was just too much red and it looks really good now.

    Its the same design as the black and white zebra model now but mines red instead of white obviously.

    How far off OE is the finish mate ? Would you buy a set again or put a bit more cash into it and get custom paint ?

    Very. Well, the actual finishe isn't the problem, its the fit. Be prepared to sit for hours with a cutting knife slowly stripping off mm's here and there. Then you can just about get it to line up with the bolt holes, but even then, its shoddy to say the least. for me it was ok as i got these of a guy who couldn't fit them so sold them for £140 all in, but i wouldn't be prepared to pay plus £350 for them. Better off getting a proper paint job and or using vinyl or decals.

    I only bought them incase i drop it on track so the shoddiness is ok for me, but if i were a concourse whore - leave well alone.
