Seems they are a chinese company based in china, Anyone used them?
Bit concerned of giving my debit card details to them, and if the bits would fit.
Also a strange bit about import taxes, you must pay us a bit more but we can make false invoices or something.

Any one used ?

Can't help with that exact seller... last time, I used Auctmarts from their ebay store: https://www.ebay.co.uk/str/auctmartsfairings
All the chinese sellers seem pretty much the same to me (previous to Auctmarts I used "neverland fairings")

The bit about import taxes is definitely dodgy... if anyone in customs cares to look they'll soon realise what the contents are, and stick you with the necessary bill. Don't forget, the boxes will be enormous so marking "£35" on the side is stretching credibility a tad!
I was stung for about £50 last time I think (purchased in 2020).

What happens do you get a bill before the items get delivered?

I've had a bill from the Courier before they'll deliver and I've had an invoice afterwards

I'd only buy anything on the internet via Credit card - you have so much more protection

Both times for me I've had a bill delivered, then had to pay to release the delivery. After paying the package turned up a few days later.

What's disappointing about these fairing kits these days is none of them seem to come with the proper manufacturers decals or logo anymore, is this due to copyright reasons or something?

Not sure what you mean. The "OE" schemes seem to come with all the expected logos.
