Picked up my grey ghost in early Feb 2016. Adding Hondaline accessories so far.
Stockers were very easy to remove. Had them down in less that 5 mins. They are a hard thin plastic. Look kind of brittle. Def glad I bought these for my Pioneer. They arrived in 3 pieces. Tail is easy-existing mounts. Mid is existing mount plus drill self tappers in a few locations. Nose skid is pretty much self tappers but overall went together well, is tough as hell and definitely protects well. This is my second set from FUTV. I had them on my RZR.Nice - I got my eye on those skid plates - let us know how the install goes.
I was scraping the factory skids several times yesterday. The shields will hold much longer Jim.
