Cracked Roof Repair

[85_Ranger4x4]

Just dropped the middle section of our MIC 4dr. Yeah I know, don't wanna hear it.

Anywhoo any fixes out there to get by with to get the thing to possibly seal/stay together until a new one comes in?

I used this to seal the edges on my MIC and its holding up well.

I will later, was tired from getting it ready for a car show. Just said screw it and went in the house hoping it was a bad dream.

It's still cracked this morning.

the fix probably will depend on where the damage is. Have fun at the car show. It happens

Glue of choice (cyanoacrylate would be my choice), M7 (carbonized grey) touch up paint is pretty darn close for concealing any discoloration with crack. Obviously a temp fix until you can get a replacement section.

Get some THIN (slightly runny) clear epoxy and let it wick into the crack. Then within one to two minutes wipe off the excess with a clean, smooth cotton cloth. Use some denatured alcohol (Home Depot or Lowes in the paint department) and use another piece of clean cotton cloth and wipe off the surface to clean the epoxy smear with it. Do Not use acetone or you will melt the plastic.

Couldn't you just fix it with a fiberglass repair kit and then clean it up and paint it to match?

These are not fiberglass. I believe they are Plastic.

Is it moving or just a hairline crack I would just let it be hit it with a black marker to blend in the white crack a little and just wait for the new one to come in. No one is going to be the wiser. That sucks silly mistakes always just irritate the piss out of me.

I've repaired cracked plastic motorcycle fairings this way.
