Can anyone suggest a way for me to fix a couple scratches/scrapes on my bike? I'm hesitant to go replace the entire fairing when I'll prob. be getting a new bike soon, anyway. I remember seeing an ad on tv for some spraypaint for use on plastics, like lawn furniture...think it'd work??

has touch-up paint that will match fairly well. If that fails, I vote for the sticker too.

scratches
Just my 2 cents
wet sand the area (with scratches) until they are flush with the original surface. Also lightly wet sand the entire piece of fairing that the damage is on. You will want to repaint the entire piece otherwise your patch up area will not blend with it. Just make sure you use the correct color or you will be painting all the plastics to match.
