FYI, smoked shields can be had here but they're stock height:

Okay I did the install a few weeks ago and i think It looks pretty good. I ordered the eBay HD quarter faring replica and 2 sets of 49mm turn signal relocation brackets. The rep fairing comes with brackets that are very similar to the bung king so I was able to use those. All that I did was bend the bracket where it attaches to the 49mm brackets.
It looks great.
It looks great.
Please provide pics of your mounting hardware that came with the replica and also the details on the eBay seller you used. I'm very, very intetested in finding an alternative to spending hundreds of $$ on the HD genuine fairing.
Are you able to remove the fairing completely and leave no mounting hardware retained on the bike?

Can you provide details on your fairing, is it HD or replica? Did you have to change any stock components on the LR-S to get the fairing to fit, and/or does anything rub against the fairing? I'm looking to install a quarter fairing on my LR-S as well.

You don't really "change" any stock components, you remove the bikini faring and mount.

This is the smoked fairing on eBay

This is the clear glass

Here are some pics of the mounts and fairing
These are the turn signal relocation 49mm brackets I got off eBay for $9
Pics on bike
On the bracket we're it attached to the 49mm mounts is were I bent them
Stock come in the shape of a V
And I needed to bend them in the shape of a L
I hope that makes sense

The only piece I'd like to change would be to have completely removable clamps. Do you know if the genuine Harley clamps will work directly with the bracket that comes with the replica fairing? I'm looking at the clamps the OP used, Harley part number 57192-05A

Great cost effective solution!
