Hey guys, I was just wondering if anyone in the bay area knows a good place to fix a cracked side skirt? It hit a speedbump and cracked on impact, and actually came off a bit from the car. Any help would be appreciated, thanks

 

ever heard of bondo

Any other suggestions?

 

Either get another one from ebay or a junk yard, -OR- just try and fix the cracked one by removing from the car and turning it over, scratching the hell out of the plastic (really making some deep groves in it going in different directions) and then apply fiberglass resin and a few strips of glass over it. If the scratches aren't deep enough to make the surface extremely rough, then the resin will let go after a short period of time. I fixed a front bumper cover like this and it seemed to hold really well.

After taking a closer look, I think it might be easier if I replace it completely. The crack is pretty deep (also pretty scratched up) and I'm sure it would take alot of work to try and fix this.

Anyone got a good side skirt seller on ebay? Ive checked HandAAccessories but am going to try and use that as a last option because of the price.

Yes, it is the OEM one.

Thanks for the suggestions
