I just recieved my ABS Mugen Style front lip for my civic...and it's cracked. I have to wait till monday to call the place cause they are on the east coast. But I figure they will tell me just to keep the cracked one since it's worthless in their eyes now anyways and they'll just send me a new one. So I was wondering if anyone knew of some cheap ways to fix the crack? I was thinking of taking a couple metal strips and laying them accross the crack in a few spots...then put some appoxy over them...then take some tape in front to hold it together while it's drying.

Anyone have any other cheap and effective alternatives?...or better meathods?

 

I am positive they will want it back but you could try plastic welding, if you know anybody who works at a body shop they could help you out with it.

 

what about just fiberglassing the back of it?

 

expoxy it from the back.... otherwise take a heatgun

They charge $45 for the lip...and it costs $40 to ship...it's not cost effective...and it's bad business to resell or even sell broken parts. Not to mention...the lip probobly cost them only $20 to buy from the manufacturer. After I take pics of the lip later...I'll post them up.
