would bondo fix this?
bondo wont fix that it would crack as soon as you hit a good bumb because the ground effect is plyable. what you want is something i think is called tiger hair its like bond but it has fiber glass in it that should repair the crack
i called some bodyshops and they said what you guys are saying...i said to hell with it and ordered a new one. thansk for everyone's input though....helped me make my decision!

I personally have had more success on plastic with the 3M version which is 8237 it holds better and gives you a little more time to work with it. It drys enough to sand in 30 min and is fully cured in 4 hrs. both of these products require a special gun to apply them which mixes each part evenly. Hope this helps.
Have heard really good things about fusor...we use some stuff at work that is made by SEM and I believe it's called something like Panel Bond or Plasti Bond. It's a two part type epoxy that you can spread like Evercoat Metal Glazing putty. We just repaired some ground effects and the front bumper on a 91 Pan-Am TA at work. We've also used it to bond the sheet metal fenders to the composite front nose on a couple of Craftsmen Trucks so it won't split apart if the truck flexes the front end against the track.

Nope that wont work either.....I tried that on a hoodscoop once and it was fine for a couple months but eventually it cracked and looked like crap
