So I came across a really good deal on a new 07 cbr600rr with only like 600 miles on it. It already has many mods, including a Jardine CF pipe, and the integrated taillights, but (and I know its stupid) I don't like the black 07 model because it has that ugly gray in the fairings. Are there any other ways I can make this bike look in my opinion good? Do they sell all black fairings and how much would this run me?

Honda does sell the black fairings....they call them "charcoal grey" and they run about 330.00 dollars from the stealership. I bought them for my bike as I had the silver mids originally too. Some guys paint them gloss black...but I like the slightly offset color. If they are gloss black they disappear on the bike IMO. This picture makes them look a little lighter than they do in real life....lighting was weird that day.
PIC for reference

Hey thanks I appreciate it Red. I wonder if the offset color would look ok on the all black one? I wish I could see someone who has done it....Oh well I'm still thinking about it. This guy says he'll drive 100 miles to meet me with it. I like the idea of getting a brand new bike basically with the first oil change done, and aftermarket crap that I'm going to do anyhow all for less than a brand new one

Have you thought about having the gray part painted? .. Would run anywhere from 225 - 300. Just some food for thought.

I still don't know if I wanna give up my dream of owning a blue/silver one, I mean thats what I really want. But this deal is pretty good and it already has aftermarket parts so its so hard to pass up.....07's are so hard to find used

For the price that you are saving on buying new and then having to mod it out yourself, you could always just pick up a set of the blue and silver. I know it'll probably be pricey, but that doesn't mean you have to buy them right away. Just a thought.
