Default Plastic body panels on Piaggio motor scooter??

Number 1 son dropped his scooter and cracked the front fairing and needs
to glue the
bits together ... thought of resin and thin fibreglass backing but is
there a tidier way, before
I start??


i imagine the fairing will be a thermo plastic like most other bike
fairings, so a heat weld system would be best,
people use a large soldering iron and some filler sticks to repair race bike
fairings, on subsequent droppings the fairing cracks in different places
than the repair, so it seems the repair is stronger than origional.
