JB Weld would probably work, but I would make sure you put some double stick tape under that lip so the screws aren't taking all the weight. Just make sure to scuff i with some rough sandpaper first so the JB Weld has something to stick to.
Alternatively you can get professional products for repairing things like that from SEM, where the product would cost around $30 and you would need an applicator gun ($50). It would probably hold up better and be better to paint over, but it's really up to you how far you want to take it. I haven't don't that before, so you'd have to do some research on which product to get if you take this route.

plastic welding works about as good as JB would, if both are done properly, as stated above, use liek 40 grit to rough up the back side of the crack, JB i tup, and then bodywork the front. Anythign fixable!

i would use sem problem plastic to fix it. its an adhesive/sandable filler. it will glue it back and be the filler for the outside. you will need to clean it first using the sem cleaners and prep it according to the directions.
Don't JB Weld that jank. Plasti-weld it... Just get extra ABS rods and practice first, mine is the exact same way at the moment and I'm welding it. And for filler you have to have a plastic specific filler, you cannot use standard body filler on plastic and if someone tells you that you can, please smack them. And tell them they're morons. Good luck with ur fix. I'm wondering if honda is discontinuing these as I called to just replace mine and he wanted my vin number, and usually that means they're only selling them to owners of vehicles that they came factory on... He said I could also get a rear if it came with one... He may be a moron as well though and need some smacking.
