Hello all, Dropped a heavy item off my shelf today right on my fairing by the headlight area. It now has to large cracks ( one is 2" and one is 3" ). Is the fairing made of plastic? Can it be repaired? Does not appear to be all the way through, but they are cracks. Thank you for any help or info.

Is that truly cracked or just a couple scratches?

I repaired a fairing and lowers using "Plastifix". It is undetectable.

look like scratches in pics.
The 2nd pic looks to have gone all the way through the paint to the plastic (white area)

They are both all the way through. The white that you see is rubbing compound residue. Believe me when I say, they are cracks. I can move the plastic by pushing on it gently.

It can be fixed, local shop fixed my Wide Open Custom fairing that had piece broke out after Jeep Grand Cherokee clipped me while passing another vehicle.

My latest project. Started off simple enough. Fix some crash damage to the fairing. Ok that wasn't to hard to repair. But then I open mouth and inserted foot. When I was asked if I could make the signal mounts go away. All ready to go to paint Some fresh black got sprayed this morning...
