Default Plastics

Ok well for a while i have wanted to remove the stickers on my plastics

and i have done so
but the guy who had the bike before me also took off the stickers but used a razor blade and comlelty F-up some of the sections (i did too) in some areas but NO where Near what he did..

i am wondering if anyone who has a red and black F4I or knows anyone with one who plans to stunt it.. has the stock fairing with our without stickers that arrent scratched up

OR if anyone has a good suggestion as far a a compount to mask or remove the scratches
Im going to be adding some Red DC shoe logos to distract a bit but it is just buggin me..

When I scratched mine in an accedent a local painter painted one side and they looked as good as the other non scratched side. Try to find a painter that works on bikes, boats, atv, watercraft etc they usually have plastic experience. New plastic is expensive.

Perfect fairings will cost you a couple hundred bucks for both sides. So whats the difference.

so you want someone to ship off their good fairings in trade for your messed up fairings. i'm sure you'll get a ton of offers.
