Lots of holes, lots of zip ties, frankenstitch the ol girl back together.

It's where it hooks onto the metal hook where the plastic holds go over...clear as mud?! I can't zip tie it

probably cheaper to get a new used than repair frommy expierience anyways.

I would but I JUST put on my vent kit. Would prefer to fix if the price is right.

bought my own plastic welder from mac

payed 318 bucks for it and came with lots of different rods of plastic types
easy to use with temp setting stage

once u look into prices of new plastic parts ure money will be well invested the 2-3rd time u use it

Well, believe it or not, Ive had good success using a soldering gun, and adding bits of excess plastic I carved from other spots of the piece into the plastic for filler, while holding a piece of metal behind the fix. If its in a place that flexes, I melt a piece of metal screening material (polaris gen 2 vent) into the plastic. I put together an entire smashed hood a few years ago. Whattaya thinka that? Crazy.
