Default Any ideas?

Ok, one of the little pieces that holds the plastic on broke off the rear side faring. its the one farthest to the back by the taillight. is there any way to put it back on? like caulking, or some kind of really strong glue or adhesive stuff? it makes the piece over the taillight and the side faring have a little gap there and i dont like that. any ideas?

Two words...black tape! LOL That's what I used for a temp fix. If anything else, fab up a piece to go under both pieces and fasten them together. If you want pretty, your main resort is to look for a replacement.

Someone on here hadfrabricated areplacement metal part that he was going to sell on here, I can't remember his name but it looked like a good solution, try and do a search to see if you can find him.

Iused a plastic weld two part epoxy to fix my rear side plastics( the mount that goes into the rubber grommet on frame) and also fabbed up an entire corner that broke of the rear corner (by the tail-light). Its great stuff,its fully sandable in 15 minutes. Make sure to get "plastic weld" the other epoxy is crap. Make sure to scuff up and wipe down area with some kind of degreaser.
