R100RS fairing - any replicas?

I just bought an R100RS fairing, but on closer inspection it's a mess. Brittle plastic, mangled fitting holes, etc. It's really an end of life item.
I can buy NOS fairing parts, but these will be ancient plastic too, so that doesn't hold much appeal.
Is there anyone making replica bodywork for the R100RS?
Edit: oops, misspelling in subject

Thanks, but they only seem to do R90S type fairings. (Or am I not looking in the right place?)

After seeing the state of my eBay "bargain", I'm not going to buy another part like this off eBay. I was hoping to find someone making new fairings.

Well, it's not an RS fairing, but it looks like the next best thing.
Spitfire II Race Fairing
And it is cheap and brand new - and light! $345 / 5lbs 9oz

"Airtech Streamlining" have a very good Reputation for producing high quality reproductions.
They not only do Ducati ,Dunstall, Norton, & all Jap makes etc, but I believe they can customize anything.
Might be an idea to email " Dutch " . He's really helpful and i found him very prompt in answering
my many questions before I recently ordered an R90S fairing from them.
Note: Hes on holidays till the 25th Sept.

Pretty cool looking. It's come up here before. I wonder if a headlight could be
retro-fitted.
Edit to add: Looks so.....
