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

3 or 4 layers of fiberglass behind it about a foot on both sides of the crack would strengthen it enough that once the bondo was on, it should hold.

naw man u need some stuff called fuson, there is different stages of it too, napa sells it just walk in tell them ur problem and they will hook u up, this stuff fixes everything like that, bumpers, molding, ground effects, etc. it flexes so it wont break. i just modified my cowl hood with this stuff, u can sand it, prime it just like bondo

How About 200 Mph Nascar Tape?{duct Tape}

I think the stuff he is talking about is called Fusor and they carry a line of products for different applications in the Fusor line you would probably need 142 or the 152 but it drys very fast. 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.

the only bad thing about fusor is that it reacts to the hot and the cold and it shrinks.
duramix will work well for you if you are working with urethane.

thank you

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
