Wow sick!!!!!!!

[gtp3800]

hey let us know how it was installing the fairing on your lightning. I have an 05 12scg and was considering doing the same thing. Post some pics when your done.

[twoguns]

looks nice, but how hard would it be cleaning the bugs out of the headlight grill...

[BeDaring08]

the bugs are easy to clean out, just some degrees and a rag. Never had a probably with keeping it clean. It was super easy to go, just some wire gutter mesh and black automotive glue.

[Riderdie]

It's a pretty straight forward swap...
