I sent Garage Shop Baggers an email asking for additional pics. I am in the Denver area and their website says they are located there too. When I asked if I could see them in person they said they don't have any in stock (for about 3 weeks) and their shipment comes from California. I think they look good. Here are the pictures they sent me:

Those are about the worst pics ive ever seen. Are they tryin to hide somethin by blurring and adding glare to these photos?

They look like crappy cell phone pics to me. Atleast they responded to my email with some pics even if they are crumby. I don't think they knew I was going to post them on here for the masses to see.

I wasnt tryin to be an a-hole, it just seems strange that those are the photos they provide of a product they sell.

Seems like at the very least they wold have some photos ready for customers to request. Those photos are not going to help a potential purchaser make a decision in their favor.

Pictures dont really matter...I can take a pic of anybody's bags and tell you I fiberglassed them myself...you see where Im coming from.

Someone needs to put their hands on some to find out real quality. If I had the doe to blow, Id try them out.

My cousin bought the bags from fairingfactory at a decent price. They are ABS, sturdy, but when painted with no bodywork they look wavy...they also had a line on them that looks like a seam line. That stopped me from getting them. He also bought lids and fender from them which seem to be ok. I think he paid maybe $950 or so for bags, fender, and lids.

Heres a pic of the faringfactory bags
