So far, I've installed a fender eliminator kit and replaced both front and rear signals. Each signal set cost me about $10, and the fender eliminator bracket was $20. Photos to follow. Please add any of your lown cost mods here too :)

My fender eliminator was practically free, but inviting to Cops but I haven't had any problems with them.

Turn signals from Amazon, and levers I got off of eBay. I was scared that they wouldn't fit but they did.

Where did you get your fender eliminator kit? I only see ones for like $90, it has a license plate mount right?

I got a universal fender eliminator bracket. had to get a metal plate from Home Depot to modify it though. I'll post more detailed pics of mine on here tonight.
No rush but if you get a chance could you take some close ups of it? Id rather do what you did then spend $120. If you want to e mail them to me my e mail is [email protected] thanks!
Cassie,

Any info on those front turn signals? That's a super clean look!

They're by K&S, but they retail for about $50. I'd just go to your local dealer and find flush mount signals for an R6.
Would anyone be interested in purchasing the fender eliminator kit from me for $60? I'm thinking of building a few to sell. $50 without the turn signals.

Thanks for the info. I went ahead and found a few sets on ebay for the R6 for 30ish dollars so ill probably pick those up. Any more info on them? Do they need any kind of extra electronics to get them flashing properly and do you lose the day time running capability?

Thanks!

You'll need the resistor kit if you want to keep the running light function, and if you want them to flash at the same rate. If you don't get the resistor, then it will flash quickly.

I personally would never, ever, use resistors. They can get hot enough to damage the wiring harness and surrounding parts, even cause fires. The simple solution to this is to buy an LED specific flasher relay to replace the stock one, that will eliminate the "hyperflashing". I got one for $10, and cheap led turn signals for $15. Here's a link to my install thread including where I got the parts.

And, no this is not an FZ-07, but a close relative.

I guess you could say one should resist using a resistor.

Sorry, I'll see my way out.

I like your fender eliminator kit. And the front signals. Where'd you get them? I'm waiting for the integrated sequential tail light kit. It's so nice and although it's $90, there will be no actual tail lights sticking out

I built my fender elim kit using a universal fender elim bracket and some parts from Home Depot. Front signals are by K&S, but any flush mounts for an 06 and newer R6 will work perfectly. Any R6 signals use the same factory connector, so you don't have to cut any wires.

I did not use resistors on mine. I'm not worried about having running lights, or the speed at which they flash. I'm with you on not using them lol
I'm glad you didn't use resistors. Forgot to mention that you can keep the running light feature using a product called "blinker genie".

Hey, any and all info on installing those flush mounts would be greatly appreciated. I have a pair coming in the mail right now. Main concern is fastening them to the housing.
