    I have a crack in my fairing over a screw hole i'd like to fix before it gets any bigger.

    Can anyone here point me in the right direction for someone that can help for a small patch up on the back, just so it's strong (don't really care about the cosmatics that much)

    Cheers

    if you have the factory panels (I'm guessing the bike is CBR250R) they are made out of plastic. Take it to a plastic welder and get him to fix it up. Should be quite cheap. You could fix it with fibreglass, but it would mostly be a bit of epoxy resin that would be acting as glue. Unless you got a hole to fill, i recommend plastic weling. (i work in a fibreglassing shop :-P)

    Yea, they're the factory ones, well one of the side ones in (I think the one with the crack is factory)

    How much do you think it'd be for welding?

    If anyone needs repairs done with fibreglass or are making new panels and need a hand. I have all the appropriate materials, tools, experience to lend a hand.
    Yep thats what it sounds like

    but really, more than happy to help out with the itchy stuff(fibreglass).

    youp
    same here with fibreglass. I might not have a huge amount of experience, but definatley more than most people as i work with it every day.
    I'm happy to help if anyone needs it.

    Oh, btw indy: If its one crack (say 5cm long) probably no more than $20-30 surely. Even cheaper if you clean up the welds yourself afterwards. Plastic welding is cheap
