At the moment I've got a set of varios panels on loan from Blackzook, they aren't perfect either, maybe they go out of shape after a while I'm not exactly sure, but factory fit and finish isn't perfect. These cheap imports use 4mm metric threads on posts which aren't the same as factory and the alignment isn't perfect, but if you are prepared to put in with the extra work require to get the alignment right, it's a very cost effective alternative to OEM replacements.
+1 Yep just alot stuffing around but they eventually will fit reasonably well & you end up with more dollars in ya wally.
If you want a factory finish then use OEM
Gnarbs how about making some out of good old Aussie Galvanized Iron then if ya need repalcements you can raid the neighbours roof
Don't give up on them Avante, just perservere mate & make sure you get some nice buttonhead bolts for the posts & cut them to the correct length so they do not put a hole in the fairings. Mate it is a pity your not in SA cause I would get them suckers to fit no matter what
Isn't it Ironic that my Favourite Stretch of Tarmac is called C.O.P.
