Default Body filler or body repair ?

Hello every one. The corner of a ground effect piece is cracked but not completely separated. I went to auto zone. I saw bondo body fill and bondo body repair. Which is best for the ground effect repair ? And is this bondo body repair made for plastic or metal or used for both ?

DO NOT use bondo on plastic! I like 3M E-Z sand adhesive for plastic repair along with a adhesive promoter.

3m 8115, In my experience this stuff works great for fixing plastic bumpers.

Doesn't look like factory ground effects. Whats it made of? Plastic like the bumper, or hard fibreglass? Is it flexible?
