I know exactly what you want with the fasteners, as I plan on going the same route with my composite covers. Here's a link to get you going with the hardware. www.aircraftspruce.com/menus/ha/fast.html

I was in the garage ripping aluminum diamond plate panels into smaller pieces to make some drip pans for another member on here. Time sorta got away from me :blink:

Here's a rearset idea for you.
The 650s with two bolt rubber mounted pegs, you can swap the mounts from left to right and vice versa, pegs on the proper sides, shorten the brake pedal, and rig up or shorten the gear shifter, like these pics of another members bike:
