well i spent a few hours putting this kit on, it is poorly fitting, the license led is a joke(too big and bulky, does not light up squat), everything is crazy tight fitting, the signals are attached to the license plate bracket(i suppose that they want you to order their tail light kit), the holes dont line up for the plate and the spacers are too thick which causes fitment issues with the tail light section, the only saving grace is the lock relocation

but i just order the evotech kit to replace this, man what a disappointment, looks nice.. when you are 5 ft away though

I went with the Evotech after reading about it in a few other threads located on this board. I didn't like the looks of the R&G (not that it was all that bad) or the Rizoma although some may find them superior, I just had a problem with either their design or the cost.

+1, The Evotech is perfect in every way. You'll be very happy with it.

  Do yourself a favor and use the search feature for your next mod, unfortunately that comp werks fender thingy has given lots of people trouble.

 I was one of the first to install the Ducati short fender kit, cheap crap that was very pricey. hopefully others have benefited from my review.   Smiley

+1 on the Evotech.  I started with the Competition Werks and quickly went to the Evotech and have never looked back.  Much higher quality and it is a one piece unit.

i think everyone pretty much agrees that the evotech is the creme de la creme of fender elim's right now for the new monster.

i'm using one personally and i really cant see how it can be done any better... well, except that the led license plate light is pretty dim, but that's not really a deal breaker for me.

i agree, it doesn't fit great, but its optional lower plate mounting position, and powder coating it black, makes it all worth it.

and, get these, looks badass!
