cracked ground effect

i bought a new front ground effect for my 91 rs last year. a few months later i bumped a curb while parking and now there is a tiny crack in the front drives corner ( maybe a half inch long ). it is mostly on the under side but i really dont want it to spread. i was wondering what the best way to fix it would be. i thought about using a fiberglass patch but i dont really know. can someone help me.

i am assuimg u are talking about the chin GFX, right? (or u are one hell of a bad driver).. Thats not fiberglass, so a fiberglass fix wouldnt work.. u need to do plasic repair.. i have to do the same thing, i was sent to www.autobodystore.com. Give the owner and email and he will let u know what to get.
