Default Can fiberglass be used to repair...

A nylon Intake? I know that some plastics are not good to use with things like super glue and stuff. Have a lil problem with my intake and need to know if I can use fiberglass to repair it? Or if not, then whats recommended?

Thanks,
Charlie.

Not sure but I dont think that would be a great idea, someone might tell you different, what's wrong with your intake. Good Luck

The vacuum module in the rear ended breaking off the bottoming out tabs in the intake, causing the vacuum connector to "fall" into the intake. A friend suggested JB Weld, he used it on one and no problems so I will try that. Should just get an LS6 intake already!
