Default Pimp my bike

I have a 1999 honda CBR 600 F4. runs like a champ, but its not the best cosmetically. there are a few rusted parts. nothing that is bad. Plastics are beat. The gas light doesn't work. front clip has a nice crack in it. you get the idea. I wanted to sell it and get cheap cruiser. but im leaning towards dropping a little bit of cash to make it look nicer. where is a good place to get my bike "pimped". or even a good website to buy parts cheap because i can't find one.

ty

im more interested in finding a shop to do it.

im guessing you are not mechanically inclined since you had to ask where to get your bike fixed.

i would do it myself if i were in your shoes. hit up the ebay fairings (get a nice/decent looking fairings minus the blign bling shit). new set of tires, maybe some rearsets, SUSPENSION, power commander etc.
doing all this is not hard as long as you TAKE YOUR TIME.

anwyay, im gonna let soemone else chime in. im about to eat my porkchops.

Damn someone offer to do it for this guy... I know I would pimp it if he would buy the parts and pay my labor.
