Default Brand New fairings....PUSHED OVER when parked!!

Put on new aftermarket fairings and got knot down 3 days later!! Grrr. Anyways I only pay around 500 for the set and don’t want to repaint one side for 200bucks. Someone recommended a professionally mixed spray paint which will have the gloss. It is not so noticeable but of course I notice it. There is a part in the centre that I can see the actual fairing(No paint). Can anyone comment on this issue. THanks

Krylon Fusion is decent spray paint that you can get in gloss. Just google it and a ton of information is to be found on paint jobs done with it. It bonds with the plastic unlike normal spray paint.


However it aint no professional paint --

Why do people create posts like this and not include pictures?

Would it make you feel better once you see his broken bike?

Guide to posting pics:

https://cbrforum.com/forum/forum-hel...-posts-104022/

And pics would help, we have no idea how bad the damage is.....will it need a whole new paint job or simply a touch up....
