I know its been dismissed previously but given you are clearly st at prep, what about this "Plasticoat" stuff?

No prep, and with the lack of undercoat and at £11 a can from the manufacturer it's probably cheaper because no primer or lacquer.

In theory another spill would just mean a wipe, a repair if necessary, then another layer of the stuff.

sounds like you need to speak to a sheet metal worker and get a metal fairing made up!

Don't like the paint, but love the car. That's awesome.

My fairings are buggered too. They will be retired and only used in emergencies if / when I smash the new set to smithereens. The new set is going on over winter and getting a cheap one colour paintjob. I'm not forking out for fancy paint, as that will guarantee a crash.

GET SOME NEW FAIRINGS YOU TIGHT bd

I didn't realise how cheap they were. They were much more 18 months ago.

New fairings in the same colour scheme I think with some company decals.

Chuck about £2000 in a pot as "advertising" from the business you can cover your trackdays from your gross then.

If you're going to buy new fairings I'd recommend CRC ones. Bit more expensive but they fit really well.

It's just that I go a lot faster than you so I do more laps, cover more distance, overtake more people etc etc. it's all about efficiency wink

Aah but think about the coverage MTBs bike gets when he is picking it up out of the dirt or when the trailer brings it back with everyone watching!!

Pft, just sticker bomb it. Then when you crash again you can cover the damage with more stickers.

Hahahahaha. Not bloody likely, it's a tax fiddle for me to get my trackdays and potential races for next year from my gross instead of net.
