06 and 07 blue are the same. I have a 07 tank on my 06.

Louis, any update on when the parts will be at your door?

Louis doesn`t have more info than you do in terms of ETA

The tracking number I pasted on the previous page states that the parts are currently going through US customs.

With a little luck they`ll be delivered this week, latest next week (unless they get lost somewhere and you`re all screwed )

DAMN! I'm so pissed that I didn't pay any attention to this front fender when we placed our order. This is exactly what I want.

pm sent to wavex.

Bad news! wavex doesn't know what he's talking about! I got the plastics today! bike10, you can come pick them up tonight. I'll PM you w/my cell number and address and we'll try to work something out even if it isn't tonight. Everybody else, I'll work on getting your stuff shipped out tomorrow morning because I'm hoping to close my escrow on my house on Thursday! Then it's moving time for me!

Just picked up mine & crazybiker's. There are some rough spots especially the bottom; it needs some more fiberglass & resin. These were made for racing and are thin and very light weight. They weigh about 1/2 of what my Skidmarx belly pan does. crazybiker let me know how you want to do this. Do you want me to get it ready for mounting before paint or do you want me to paint it & ship it?
I will try and get at least one mounted up to see if we need to make brackets or if they use existing bolt positions. My cost to prep fiber glass, materials paint body color and clear, buff & polish is realistically around $70.00(this covers my supplies and the shipping cost to get them). My original quote didn't include the primer, materials shipping costs and fiberglass prep. So just let me know. I think it would be best to have it ready for mounting, strengthen the fiber glass and prep, paint, clear and polish. I should use a lot of clear to protect from road chips, the more I use, the stronger the paint will be.

bike10, I will go with whatever you feel the best .

I am not entirely clear about choice between ready to mount and directly paint and ship it!
Did it come with mounting brackets?

Ofcourse, I have been wanting a belly pan since so long. That is the only reason I could make up my mind to lose the center stand.

Thanks for all your help !

That's not right... you're saying the parts need fiber glass rework to make them look OK??? That's not acceptable.

Before you do anything, please post pictures of the spots that need more fiber glass & resin, so I can complain with Access Composite...

The parts should be almost ready for paint... paint prep work (some sanding, and maybe some more primer) should be the only thing necessary.
