Wheel fairing repair

You could get it fixed by some part of the automotive industry but this will usually result in a poor and heavy repair.

My advice would be to take it to a gilder repair shop, these people understand composite structural repair techniques and will do a far better and long lasting job.

Had no issues, after all, the fairing is just fibre glass, not a composite of (eg) carbon fibre. They did an excellent job of it, relatively cheaply too.

You must have got lucky with your automotive repair and that is very unusual.

The term composite refers to all non- metal structures not just carbon. The techniques for repair are very similar what ever the GRP structure, the skilled technician will make an invisible repair with next to no weight gain and retain 100% of the original structural strength . Cheaper repairs usually fall short of this standard.
