the right way to fix this would be to get it plastic welded and do both sides then i would sand down the front side untill it is flush if you still see imperfecions i would skim coat it with plastic bondo witch is green. for extra support i would put a bit of fiberglass/mat, or bondoon back side.

3M Makes a flexible plastic 2-part epoxy that repairs urathane plastic. just V-cut your crack and fill with the epoxy. Reinforce the back of teh repair by building it up with extra epoxy. Its an easy fix.

AGAIN!!! I have outlined a repair method please do a search. I have also decided to do a tech article on the subject, that I hope will get a sticky.
This is a foolproof method and WILL NOT FAIL!!!!
