Can i bondo Plastic?
I went to get my brake pads change today and end up with a broken lip. My lip is Greddy and its not the fiberglass one. This is plastic so my question is can i bondo it over or i have to get a new one? here is the pix how it look like

Yea i plan to do it myself. I know its gonna be a lot of people but yea i don't wanna get fiberglass period. If i can get one that not fiberglass then less work for me.

honestly before i bought the wise sports front bumper
i had the TTe lip and really thought it flowed well
i was going to sell but just in case something happens ...i have a back up
i might just cut out the slats to show off the FMIC on the stock bumper

Ok if u attempt this yourself remember it it not that easy, also who is going to paint it after u do the repair??? With this in mind there is a product called "FUSOR " . U can buy this from a automotive paint supply store. U will also need the proper dispensing tool to flow the product<since it is like 2 part poxy .. all u really gotta do is pre fit the 2 pieces... flow the fusor over bolth ends of the repair and heat the area with a heatgun or even a "hairdryer". Once the product is dry u can sand it down with sandpaper. First use a lower grade grit paper and work ur way up to a higher one (such as a 320 -420 grit ) until u make the seam unnoticeable then u are ready 4 paint. Believe me fusor is strong enough to bond anything ... I worked in an auto body shop 4 years good luck ... it can be done but i dont recomend painting it ur self they should not charge anymore than $100 2 paint that after u complete the repair . Some shops might do the total repair for cheaper than that, but it might be of lesser quality.
