Wow wicky good work
Re: Respray or new fairings?
Does look good
Matches the colour of the seat. I shall go that way with it I think. Now to find some graphite grey. Still a little more sanding to do but its nearly there.
Just got these little corners to do on both sides and then the finer going over.

Re: Respray or new fairings?
you have taken that back to the plastic, that makes it tougher with lots more elbow work envolved, but you will end up with a good finish once its done properly, i would deffo use a high build primer to take out the minor imperfections, it means even more sanding down tho...
i don't have lots of experience with spraying plastic panels, but what i would say is try to use lots of coats of paint, practice on an old piece of fairing until you think you have achieved the desired finish. i have recently got a good finish using halfords plastic primer,sand paper as high a grade as 1500, gloss black and clear laquer, a g3 compound paste and autoglym resin polish. none of these products are top of the range products so to speak, but i'm happy with the finish i got.
i look forward to seeing the finished bellypan buddy
