Convertible Wing Plastic Type?
I am repairing the rear wing on my convertible. It feels like an ABS plastic but was wondering if anyone knew for sure. I have some crazy good stuff that repairs the black roof top cargo boxes. I will try to use it on the mounting posts.

Re: Convertible Wing Plastic Type?
I don't know what the type of plastic is but for repairs I have used Plastic Weld 30 minute set epoxy with great results. If you're unsure of it's ability to hold over time you can take some uber low grit sandpaper to the surface and drill a couple smaller holes in it so the epoxy really has something to grab and hold on to.
