If they are from George Fitzsimmons in NJ....I returned them. They were not right for my 2002 800.

The quality is excellent and I paid the price, but when I dry fit the front one, it simply did not fit the shape of the fender close enough for me....that means there would have been gaps you can see visually, had I drilled the fender.
The rear fender tip would have covered up some of the heavy decal that runs down both sides of the rear fender...so that was an aesthetic problem for me.

George was good about it and returned my money after I explained the situation. So for me, they simply did not fit the fender shape and I wasn't willing to live with the gaps at that price...plenty of inexpensive ones that are not cast that you can bend to shape if you really want fender tips. Look at the photos on line closely where the cast ones are installed. You will see the fit.

Again, no knock on George, but that is my experience with the product. Remember, the fenders are plastic and the tips are cast....they will not pull together. They have to fit exactly to work.

Has anyone bought and installed the front and rear fender tips being sold on eBay? They are $250 a set. Pretty high price.

Is there anywhere else to buy them?

Do they fit perfect and tight?

The chrome quality?
