any experianced ebay buyers ? need help!

Hello everyone. Well I'm in need of some new fairings for my 08...
I've never bought anything on ebay and have heard its a bit tricky...
Just wanna show get some feedback on these plastics I was interested in getting. Wat u guys think?

For KAWASAKI ZX6R Ninja 07-2008 ABS FAIRING GREEN K6711 | eBay


FOR KAWASAKI ZX6R 07-08 FAIRING GREEN PLASTIC 6W711 | eBay





These were the cheapest I could find online. Nd prefer to get these for that clean stock look.
Should I look somewhere else ? Get one of these?
Any help is greatly appreciated!

I've been buying / selling for years on Ebay. I wouldn't buy from the seller you listed. Always read reviews. He has a bunch of neg feedback about his body kits. They are not quality ABS injection moldings... the paint flakes off easily... bolt holes don't match up properly..

Try these guys:

07-08 ZX6R FAIRINGS : Kawasaki Ninja Motorcycle Fairings - Kawasaki ZX6R/ZX10R Fairings

If you find 'Delkovic' kits.. they are good. I'm using a full Delkovic kit on my 06 now.

I bought my kit from these guys:

New and used motorcycle sales and parts Denver Colorado

Since they were local, I picked the body kit up from them & paid 0 shipping. 300 bucks out the door for unpainted white ABS.. full body kit.

I got the fairings from

Kawasaki Ninja Motorcycle Fairings - Kawasaki ZX6R/ZX10R Fairings

They are from China, they work...not the best match or best shine but they do the job

Yeah I thought they wouldn't be so great. Thank you bro.
I was looking at the ninjafairings.com site but seems like they don't have just an all green fairing kit with no stripes.. I want the fairings to not have designs just stock... Like yours.. (I think)
Nd u said u got the all white kit unpainted??... So did u paint your plastics yourself or did u get them professionally done?

Yes, I got plain unpainted white plastic. I prepped the plastics & had them painted by a guy I work with. He did a good job, but I will paint it all myself next time. If you paint it yourself, make sure you use a good etching primer. The paint chips off easily if you don't. If you are painting over a paint job, get some 280 grit paper & lightly sand everything before you paint over it. You will not need etching primer if it has already been painted.

The other thing you have to worry about with ordering from HK is customs. You might get extra postal fees / customs charges. The wind screen I just got from HK was sent as a 'gift' so I didn't have to pay fees.
