As you can see, the back of the right side is in much better shape (glass wise). There was very little layer seperation, and no thru cracking. I will just have to drill out some stress propagation points, and then start glassing.
This suspension fairing had a bit of damage that was pretty deep, and it was mostly broken glass fibers, with a bit of resin cracking. After the air sander, it was all hand sanded to keep all the contours. The resin they used is some extremely hard stuff.
The prep on the engine cover is about 95% complete at this stage.
Now onto the really damaged part: the air intake housing.
After a lot of sanding and shaping, it is about 75% prepped. The rest of the prep work will be on the inside of the housing, to smooth and even out the glass for a consistant strength.
