I have two fairings to make one decent one.

One has all the lugs but a bit snapped of the back.

The other

Has all lugs missing and bits cracked but the section that I need for the other one is fine.

So basically I need someone to plastic weld them together or repair.

Is there someone that can do this?

You could probably glue it together with West systems G-flex epoxy. If you put bias weave fibreglass cloth across the back of it, even stronger.

Yeah, I've used some plastix stuff before which hardens like actual plastic, but I wondered if there was a company out there that actually did fairing repairs??

I don't want to mess either of them up even more if I can help it!!

Best repair the fairing with the lugs due to any repaired lugs could struggle when bolting up, snap fastener ok. I recommend plastex absolutely no affiliation with the product I work on the railway. Look at repairing failings on YouTube. There are many products out there.
