Ground Effect Repair..

Hey guys, just joined the forum and I have a question for you all..

I have a 1987 Nissan 300ZX 2+2, I was going over a speed bump and cracked my drivers side ground effect in half...

It didnt bust it (no chunks taken out) just put a crack straight through the center of it. So its now in two pieces...

The question is, what would I use to fuse the two pieces back together??
Any help would greatly be appreciated, thanks in advanced!

Ground effect? Do you mean a body kit?

Repairing it depends on the material it's made of. I imagine you are talking about the side skirt that runs from the fender, along the rocker, to the quarter panel? It's probably fiberglass or urethane. In which case, you'd use fiberglass or urethane repair techniques.

Sorry I should of been more specific hahaha. Its the ground effect/ side skirt (not sure what the proper name of it is) that runs from fender, rocker, to the quarter panel.
I do believe its made of fiberglass, its the side skirt that came from factory..
Thanks for the info!
