Could you give the infromation about the "Cooling air intakes"??

Thanks.

Hmm, do you mean the radiator cowls? Found them here: Caches radiateur tuning pour Fazer FZ6 - 04/06

I guess they do call them "cooling air intakes" but they don't really serve a function except aesthetically. They are fiberglass, not plastic. I purchased the unpainted version, then sanded/primed and painted with the frame black from colorrite. I also needed to cut down the ends by about 6 inches as they interfere with your knees. Here's a comparison showing the original size and then after modifying it. Also, the fit is not perfect so I had to build brackets to connect to the radiator. You can see mine is angled up towards the back a bit more than the sales photo.
