probably pricey enough to bring big tears to your eyes the first time you drag your boot accross the rear fender and a trip to the psychiatrist the first time you really give them a wack!

the sad thing is your probably right, for just a carbon fiber gas tank cover (just the top part for around the gas cap) is $50. so just imagige what the rest of the plastic would cost.

Screw Carbon fiber. I want Fulbore to make the Chrome plastic for the banshee like they have for the Raptor.

I saw a magazine article about someone chrome plating the plastic fairings on a Hyabusa crotch-rocket. They applied a copper coating to the plastic and then applied the chrome. It looked awesome but it added alot of weight to the bike.

Fulbore already does it just they don't have pricing on the website. I just sent them an email to try to find out.

Here is a link to the raptor and YFZ chrome plastics. The pictures are really small but you get the idea.

It would just be for show not for riding.
