If you are referring to tank panels the answer is no, because the 2007-08 models have a different anchorage point on the front whereas on the 2004-06 ones the panels are clipped to the radiator cowlings, 07-08 have a smaller rad with a different shape.

Indicators: you can fit whatever you can hook on them but if you go for LED ones you will need a relay box, to avoid them blinking illegally too fast. (Yep it is illegal for indicators to blink too fast)
