Hello, I have a 88 1000f, needs a bit of tlc on the body. Has anyone had any luck repairing stress cracks on the fairing and panels? Anyone find a place that makes new panels without having to give them the family farm for the parts? Any help would be appreciated.

find someone with a plastiwelder, those things are crazy awsome at fixing plastic.
If that isn't an option, go get some good ol' JB weld and mix it all up and quickly apply it to the backside of your plastic, let dry and walah, its strong, durable, and is covering enough plastic at one bit that it would keep for new or more breakage. Then get some filler primer, sand, prime, sand, heavy prime, buff sand, dry, tac cloth, paint. should come out really nice. Let us know what happens!
