Who has fitted Sharkskinz and Catalyst race plastics

All,
Need to order body work for the Pani, and was looking for user review of Sharkskinz, and catalyst body work. How much of a pain is it to install on the Pani? How is the fit? Thanks in advance.

I have the catalyst kit, it fits nicely. We've installed several sets of it now with no problems other than if you have a standard model you have to trim the ram air tube a little bit.

I have the catalyst fairings and a friend has sharkskinz. The major differences: 1) siade fairings on sharkskinz are more sturdy given they are a solid one piece vs the catalyst which mimic the oem body work and recreate the cutout (look on ducati.org - "tow panigales painted by ccr" and you will see what i am describing); 2) the tail section of the catalyst is a cleaner fit and design; 3) the air duct of the catalyst recreates the oem idea while shark is more of a tube function. Both are great and do the job. My painter thinks shark is better and he fitted and painted both bikes...so he knows pretty well.

Thanks guys, My local Ducati dealer sells shark skiz and they are going to sell me a set at cost, so looks like shark skinz it is. Thanks for your input
