Thanks! I want to do a test fit today but I need to fix the little cracks first. My best friend is a biomedical tech and he swears by loctite 5 minute epoxy. It says on the product spec sheet it can be used outside and doesn't freeze. It only says it should not be submersed. My friend says its similar to a weld job in that, if properly applied, it should last longer than the material it is holding together. What do you all think of that? I just don't want to do something stupid already...

what do the cracks look like? any pics?
Is the new bumper fiberglass or plastic? If the bumper is flexable, make sure you use something that isn't going to pop out and will flex with the bumper.

Here's the left corner marker area. Only the very top is broken, the lower corner of the side marker just has a piece of cracked paint.
And the right side
Here's a different crack on teh right side. This one makes me sad. But on a good note, check out the laundry basket! I knew something got me to buy it, and you rotary guys I'm sure can see it!
And here is the hole in the side skirt. I put my thumb next to it so you can get a size comparison.

for the small cracks, you can probably get away with using an epoxy. For the one with the laundry basket, you may want to patch with fiberglass. It also may be good to reinforce all of the cracks with some fiberglass on the back side.
