Depending on the Taobao agent, the cost of shipping is about $24 for the first 1.1 pounds (500 grams), and $7.50 for each additional 1.1 pounds (500 grams).

Great. Looking forward to seeing the total cost and the type of plastic used. My Shineray had hard, brittle plastics, but my Hi-Bird has a softer, more pliable plastic. Both look about the same.

so... got the quote for shipping the plastics acriss the ocean.... not cheap....LOL because of the bulk of the box, even though its about a 5kg box, its size dictates a higher cost... the shippi g for my box is $111.54... I am still doing it though LOL so full astics and new tail light mount for a grand total of $163.46

Yeah. I just got hit for $91 in shipping for about 10lbs of stuff. The order was $60. I got a couple of stators, headlight assembly, a set of side covers, and a few other small things. All in all, not a lot of savings over Aliexpress but the service, thus far, has been outstanding.

so... update! got my fairings in, happy with how they look/fit, but sadly they are the harder brittle plastic, and they are painted instead of molded in the color...however theres a benefit to that.... its painted metal flake blue..... very pleased ovsr all.... one more note, they applied the decals BEFORE clearcoating the pieces... grrrr.... oh well... too bad I found that out after I peeled one of them....

It looks good! Does it drag pegs in the corners?
