Someone put a large vinyl sticker on my bike (on the airbox cover) while parked on on the street, downtown. In the process of getting it off, it stripped the color out of a part of the airbox cover. A friend works at a Harley dealer and he's been having a hard time finding a replacement.

Can someone help me find the part number? I'd also be happy to buy a used one (in great shape) if anyone knows of one.

2009 XB9SX, "Cherry Bomb" red. It has the "X" on top of it for the tank bag.

Thank you!

Is it beyond what you can polish out? The Novus 1 and 2 work pretty well on the translucent parts. Or did whatever you use discolor it?

The color is gone from the area. Polish will not help.

I stand corrected! It wet sanded out with 600 grit. Then it polished back to a shine with fine grit compound.
