Well, it's actually for my son's T/A. We are starting resto on the car and the ground effects have several large cracks in them. Replacements are impossible to find, so we have to repair them.

I want to use some flexible material to bolster the back side of the crack when I mend it - our aero noses are the same material as the T/A ground effects. Anybody got a throwaway aero nose that they could cut some material out of for us? I need three pieces. As big as practical, I'm guessing about 6x8" each.

Any help is appreciated. I can cover costs as needed.

Or just repairing it with the bumper fix can do wonders.
Here was the damage to my nose and what I repaired it with. https://www.fiero.nl/forum/A...090219-2-079365.html

Drove it just until this summer before painting. Held up very well using the screen reenforcement that came with the kit.

Thanks for the tip, Dodge. This thing is cracked all the way to the end, and has the tendency to flap around. Plus, its very close to the ground, so I'm hoping we can reinforce against another split when he bumps it again. Regardless, I think I'll use the 2-part stuff you recommend.

Resto-guy, I sent you a PM.
