Really? If done right it will be stronger! I fixed mine bacause I had a REAL Kenstyle kit. To replace it would cost 1000.00. Plus I wanted to change it up a bit. I have 130.00 into right now and about 8hrs labor.

Fiberglass, easy fix. I fixed my racebike fairings when I highsided and it was a more complex job than that.

Be patient, do a bit of research, prep properly, and you can get a repair that'll never show. I understand your hesitation. BTW, once dried resin is hard to sand, say if you have a high spot. For your repair it shouldn't be a problem, I had that problem only one time and I was having to fill in a large gap where about 5 square inches of fiberglass was missing. You just have to patch a crack, no problem.
