Does anyone know of a company or individual who can do repairs to plastic fairings? I dropped the Fazer about 9 moths ago and keep meaning to get it fixed, damage is not too bad, cracks round the indicator mounting and the edge worn down (need built up) and cracked. No bits missing.
Was thinking of having a go myself but thought that if there was somewhere to take it they might be able to fix good as new for me.
I have repaired many cars and believe me that is much easier than bike plastics. It is a skilled job to repair plastics. A bodge up is easy, but very difficult to get a perfect finnish. You may find that it can work out cheaper to leave it to the experts.
As an alternative to Bike Paints you could try chips away. They come and do the job at your house / work place or wherever.
If you want to DIY, you may find it difficult to get the materials. Unlike car paint, you can't just pop round to Halfords All the materials you need are available from RS Paints 01226 241126.
I posted a recommendation for Mike Stewart (Cove) just 2 days ago under 'Cheapest , Best Service etc..'. Can't find it now???????
Anyway, the chap welded my top fairing around the mirror mounting, filled and repaired my right hand fairing and resprayed the lot. Excellent job and a very reasonable price. Give him a call on 01224 871230.
