Other then a brief touch up once in a while,I only spend any real time fully treating the inner fairing surface a couple of times a year with Ice and it holds up well.

Best thing I found for inner fairing is 303. It's a marine protectant for vinyl and stands up to the sun really well.
I am going to have mine painted or buy one painted to white ice pearl. My top color.
Our dealer has a special, new painted fairing installed $599. I have heard that they are a pain to change out. Not sure if that is true. I was planning to put the painted one on with the chrome cap kit.

Once the plastic starts to turn white theres not much you can do except paint it.
The plastic around the tach and speedo did this on my '06 Road Glide and those plastic protectant sprays did not restore the color.
The best thing to do is keep the plastic covered while sitting in the sun light or paint the plastic.

My 09 street glide has been fading badly. Was in for 20k tuneup & told the service guy. He said it was the Florida sun. Came back to get bike & he said they didn't have time to change the inner out today but wanted to set an apointment up with me. Asked if I could take it to my painter to paint. He asked the manager & they said YES. Picked it up this morning & dropped it off at my painter. Pick it up Wed & drop off the bike Thursday.
