It's a nice, well made aluminum piece, and comes complete with instructions, required spacers, bolts, etc. Not that instructions are really necessary, but the point is the package is very complete and well done. The materials are all quality stuff and the piece has an excellent finish and is made with nice precision. It is also built really stout and would certainly last the life of the motorcycle.
Shipping was not the fastest, but not too bad, and everything was well packed and arrived in great shape. I gave them positive feedback and was well pleased with the transaction.
I don't have any pics of it right at the moment, but I will try to remember to snap a couple the next time I can. For what it's worth once the cooler guard is mounted it it literally *disappears* and you don't even notice it... At least that's the case with the black one!   It hasn't shaken free or had any part come loose, and it's solid once it's mounted.
I give it a 4 out of a possible 5 stars, and it would get a 5 if it had not been for the relatively slow shipping.
Hope this helps!
Dallara

Really, is there a need to cover the rectifier as well? The grille is the only sensitive thing in that area-- I question the need for a cooler guard to protect anything but the grille.
Having bought said Cox Racing Guard already, I can't recommend 'em more. No complaints whatsoever about the product. Looks, price, workmanship, instructions; all top notch.
That said, any competing products I seen just look plain nasty. This one included.
