Beat me to it!

Try ebay for 2nd hand panels or a similar bike breaking. I normally find stuff when searching for "make/model/year breaking" on ebay.

Having a look on ebay it appears delkevic have started producing pattern panels for the F4, not too sure on the quality and they need to be sprayed. But i'd imagine they probably better quality than the chinese ones.

As said already just look for 2nd hand panels as nothing will fit better.

Side panels will go for between 30-100 quid on ebay depending on the condition.

i dont have the factory panels, so to get a panel and get someone to resprayed in the same design would cost more money. plus i cant see the panels i have anywhere. so i think its best to get a whole new set

A mate got some, he is a very good, and I mean very good, painter and body shop man. Took him two weeks to get them fitting and looking right.
They were a good price, and he knew he could get them to look good.
I would never have been able to make them fit.
