    Default Plastic part repair

    Hi guys some of the screw holes for the junk holders on my door have broken off.

    I dont want to get someone to plastic weld it as to be honest i had someone plastic weld it and they did a horrible job and it wasnt cheap.

    I was just going to fill the area and drill new holes. What adheres the best to the existing plastic and wont break. Epoxy resin or glue or something? if so anyone reccomend a particular product.

    Surely it would be far cheaper/easier to just go to the local wreckers and get another one? You mean the thing that runs along the bottom of the door right?

    Yes the thing you can stick stuff in running along the bottom of the door.

    No vp's with same colour interior here.... Only grey.. And they are in just as bad condition (worse actually)

    if your after a glue type stuff, try q-bond, it comes with a strenthing powder that makes it stronger/reinforces the glue.
