Congratulations!
If you’re reading this, you probably just broke an $800 fairing
on your new BMW RT.
Don’t worry, we’ve been there too...
Luckily we’ve come up with a solution.
We are happy to introduce our R1200RTW panel tab repair
kit!
The kit consists of (4) specially designed, laser cut and
formed replacement tabs. These are made from Stainless
Steel sheet metal and folded in a shape to replace the
existing tabs. Installation is easy but requires a steady hand
with a dremel tool.
Best,
Clearwater Team

Remove panel and set shiny side down, on a table protected by a towel
or other soft cloth. Carefully grind off the remaining plastic tab to reveal a
smooth surface that resembles the part of the panel without the tab. Clean
this channel out to allow the new part to fit flush.
Fit fairing to bike and put a piece of masking tape on fairing, marking the spot
where the old fairing tab lines up with the fairing tab hole on the bike.

Remove the fairing and use isopropyl alcohol (IPA) to clean the surface
where the new tab will attach.
Using a sharp edge, peel off the adhesive covering on the back of the tab.
Use a hair dryer to warm up the adhesive and the fairing where the tab will
attach.

Carefully align the new tab to the center of the masking tape location. Press
new tab in place. Hold in place with medium pressure for 20 seconds.
Note: After applying pressure, wait 30 minutes before installing the
fairing. This allows the tape to settle and gain its strength.
The adhesive tape we use is very strong and the bond increases in strength
after about 24 hours. It is the same tape that auto manufacturers use to attach
model badges on trunk lids. If applied correctly, it will last a very long time.
Install repaired panel.
Thanks for your support.
