Can you take a pic of the wiring for the turn mirrors? I haven't figured out how to cleanly do mine and my wires are just taped into place.

That's between the upper and mid it's the bodywork design for 07-11, it's supposed to be like that

there is about a 1/4 inch gap where the grooves dont snap in well. This could be due to the tank cover not being on right(i had trouble getting the bolts lined up) or i did not snap it BEFORE i bolted it. either way, i have a buddy who does trim and he is gunna put a piece of black trim over it so you wont be able to see a thing.

wiring on the mirrors is easy. stock turn signals have (if i remember right) blue and green on right signal and yellow and orange and green on left signal. green is ground and blue/yellow is hot. i crimped the wires together and drilled through the front fairing under the mirror bolts and fed the wiring through so it runs behind the fairing(kinda like headlight wires).

What is yalls opinion of the white tape around the rims. My buddys have given me mixed feelings. a few of them saw it before i put that on and liked it better than after i put it on.
