Why these break
Fairing mounting tabs snap in drops and tip-overs. UV exposure breaks down the polymer chains in the original material. By the time the surface looks chalky or faded, the strength underneath is already gone.
How we reproduce them
This is a genuine reverse-engineering job: we scan or measure your part, rebuild it in CAD, and iterate test fits until it's right. Worth it for parts you simply cannot buy anymore.
We print these in ABS. ABS matches the look and feel of the factory plastic, takes a sanded or textured finish well, and handles cabin temperatures without complaint.
As with everything in our library: whether a part can be reproduced depends on size, load, heat, material, and having a decent sample to work from. Send photos first — the assessment costs you nothing, and we'll tell you honestly if a genuine spare is the better option.
