Hi, im looking to replace the screen and winglets on my 2011 gsa anniversary with tinted ones.
does anyone know if bmw do a tinted replacement or are there any non oe replacements? ideally i want a direct replacement and not something that doesnt fit well.
also how much are they?:D
 
I've got the BMW smoke screen on my '10 Gsa, and it looks good....can't remember the price?

BMW don't do smoked winglets....or they didn't last year.

Nippy Normans do though.....and I bought some, but found that they didn't fit quite right...they sat on the bodywork rather than have the raised lip section the OE BMW ones have.

I decided this would probably rub on the paintwork over time, so I put the clear ones back on, and sold the smoked ones on here.

The smoked screen still looks good with clear winglets....but if BMW were to produce some I would swap them for smoked ones.

Hope that helps. :thumb2
 
If you do get some tinted ones I would be interested in your clear winglets :thumb

The screen is from BMW and I think is £140ish new and the winglets from Nippy Normans and are slightly larger than standard but still fit the mounting points

Does that mean you will have some winglets going spare. If so will they fit an 07 GS and if that is indeed so can I first dib them price to be negotiated he asked rather speculatively:thumb2
 
think the bmw one looks good, shame about nippys winglets.

Both the screen and winglets will be for sale once i have sorted the tinted ones.
However i wasnt aware they fit to any standard gs, only gsa:nenau
 
Oly, the tinted screen is a bit cheaper than the ordinary screen at your local stealer. Can't remember the exact price but I think it was around £20 cheaper.
 
I have both fitted to mine.....

Cropped pics so bit crappy....

Smoked winglets from guy on ebay and they are quite good, direct replacement..

If yer selling them, come up with a price and stick them in FS&W. We don't do auctions (or sales outside the correct section) :rob
 
"The screen is from BMW and I think is £140ish new and the winglets from Nippy Normans and are slightly larger than standard but still fit the mounting points"

Have you got the 'dark' tint or the 'light' tint from Nippy Normans? which matches the BMW screen best?
 
Hi i also converted a gs to tinted gsa screen and winglets, regarding the winglets NN are a different tint and too big in my opinion, so i brought these and they are 100% better than NN and the tint is exactly the same and the size is as par with the originals.

I've had a look at those on E-Bay....and they do look better than the NN ones I got.

They have the 'lip' up from the bodywork as per the BMW ones, which means they'll not rest on the body panel.

It says that they are thinner than the BMW ones.....do they vibrate more?

i used the original fixings and washers and i dont get any vibration at all, the seller does do a buy it now if you ask his name is nick, nice chap he sent me FOC a spare one as i broke one being heavy handed.
 
PB winglets

Hi All,

The Powerbronze ones do not fit a GSA they hit the tank panal as they are not raised and are too long at the bottom, i have sent some pictures to PB and await their response, i will keep you updated.
