Radiator covers

Hi Everyone,
This is my first post and it is a question. I was cleaning my bike at the weekend and managed to get the jet washer a bit too close to the radiator to and in attempting to get some dead insects out of the fins I succeeded only in bending the fins and removing some of the black paint form the Rad. I have now painted the exposed aluminium black but would like to buy a radiator cover to hide my stupidity. Can anyone recommend a cober for my RR8 Fireblade and are they easy to fit?

Thanks

Wakey

Re: Radiator covers

Firstly G'day & . I made my own easy as. I bought some coloured aluminium expanda mesh from the spare's shop, (Super Cheap Auto) and some vacuum tube which I split one side, and put around the mesh, then cable tied it to the radiator. Cost about $40.00 all up.
