i don't think you can get it in sheets, fairings are usually injection moulded!!!

what do you need it for??

If it's for a patch repair, glass fibre and resin is the usual way to do it as far as I am aware. If it's a crack, 'plastic soldering' is the usual way to bodge it back together.

Look for a recycling symbol on your other parts, it'll probably be a triangle made of of three arrows with letters in it, the letters denote the material (pp-polypropylene, pc-polycarbonate etc).

Most plastics used in injection moulding are available in sheet form often in various colours, look for engineering companies that make plastic parts. If you only want a small sheet you can buy small sheets of common plastics online from RS Components https://rswww.com, look under mechanical -> engineering materials -> plastic stock -> engineering plastics
