| So what is the right way to fix a cracked nose clip on my car (hit a dog) the crack is only about 2 and a half inches long right beside the parking lamp. I'm pulling the cover off tomorrow to gain better access and to sand the whole thing down. |

Hot knife it back together in a stitching fashion, front and rear or the piece, smooth the front flat as possible keep in mind you're plastic welding at this point too hot and the plastics won't bond anymore, not hot enough and you'll get pockets creating weak spots, sand and fill with duraglass I've done my fair share of repair on urethane parts lol
Or a few zipties work too _________________ If you expect a kick to the balls and get a slap to the face its still a victory
