Carbon fiber (cosmetically speaking)

Okay, I've sucked up my pride and moved my question to cosmetics . I have a Moriwaki carbon fiber bellypan for my Stuper. I would like to buy a front fender and a hugger in CF as well. My question is, which manufacturer makes both the fender and hugger to the level of quality Mori's bellypan is? The only manufacturers of both, I've found so far are CarbonWorks and Coerse. I can only find a slight few vendors who carry these brands for the VTR. From the crappy photos I've seen the Coerse looks to be the nicer of the two, but I know very little about Coerse nor can I find much info about them either. I can't even find a photo of the CarbonWorks hugger. Anyone have any new ideas for me?

Chesk out these links-

Well, I'll tell ya, I'm not one to spend over $500 on cosmetic parts. I tend to get my CF used or closeout. That's just way too much cash for me to justify. For $500 you can get a really nice, lightly used shock, or fork work and a Sargent seat. But.......if I had to spend the money I'd probably buy the Coerce (with a "C", BTW).

thanks

Hey thanks for the advice bro'! Coerce looks like top notch stuff! Can I ask where you bought your parts and about how much you paid? Thanks again!

Thumbs up

I got the f. fender and rear hugger off eBay. At the time, I paid approx. 450-500 bucks for both. The hugger I paid 350 for it and I had to get someone to bring back from Japan for me. But now I could probably get it easier.

Oh, by the way, the bike was DIRTY when pics were shot. Should see the carbon shine when it's clean!!
