how do I fix this fairing?
The right fairing on my new bike is bent at the bottom. It looks like it overheated or something. Can I fix this or at least get it flat again?
I thought that maybe I could hit it with a heat gun and just bend it back, but I'm not sure if that would work. Any advice is appreciated! |

Heatgun is your best bet. It's ABS, so it should be fairly predictable, just don't go too crazy and boil the paint.

Be sure to focus heat on the folded corner on both sides. Leave the protruding flat part alone. Test bending tab after 5-minutes. Add more heat as necessary.
