The finish of these fairing is comparative to the price (not much you can get for $650 in the way of body work...) Minor dust specks, minor marks but all in all not too bad at all. Just had to do a little dremel drill attention to make screw holes wide enough to take the original rubber coated bolts to re-assemble fairing.
