Default Fairing repairs

Can anyone recomend a place that can repair fairing plastics?

Has anyone seen the results of such repairs? Looking on some web sites they dont charge much less than triumph do for a new panel!

thanks for any help/advise.

I just patched one with a soldering iron... Then used some spare bits of plastic from a more broken panel like butterfly stitches across it. It's very solid, and gave a pretty good join. It'd want filled, sanded and painted ot make it finish but it'll pass in the meanitme...
