Front fender

So I’ve got a cracked front fender in black and want to replace it, it’s only a small crack so not the end of the world. Unfortunately the new market seems to have run out and if there were one it would be ridiculously expensive so into second hand and all the black ones I can find are badly scratched.
Don’t fancy painting/having one painted so that got me thinking.....
Are there any other fenders in black (or yellow, red etc for others) that will just bolt straight on

And over to the collective brain .....

Depending on what the crack is... I have repaired plastic with Permatex Plastic Epoxy, it is tough, can be filed/sanded/painted, comes in black or natural. Perhaps create a little V on the back side, clean it and the surrounding area well, helps to scuff up a bit, and paint it on... you have likely 10 minutes working time before it starts to set up, so you can smooth it out, whatever. A little thickness coat added second time around (or first) can spread the strength out on the back where it won't be seen.
Face side will always show the crack, but in black and depending where it is and how close you can squeeze it togther...... well, let's just say you can't see it at 30 mph so get over it, LOL.

 

I have been using Permatex Plastic Welder epoxy on the ABS fairings on my Silverwing and that stuff is incredible. If you want to make it more incredible you can get some glass fibre tape used for drywall joints and press that into the adhesive as well.

 

Acetone is the solvent to use, ABS is 60% styrene and acetone, used with a syringe, will dissolve the edges, hold them in place and in minutes they’re welded .... rebuilt the fairing on my RC24 recently from a collection of cracks and missing chunks

There is of course ABS cement available from builders merchants where it’s used to solvent weld pipes .... Home Depot do this
