Default Stupid Plastic

The plastic on the underside of my car cracked near the bumper. It doesn't cause any problems but it makes a noise! I had to drill a new hole and bolt it in at the best thing I could find but it cracked again! Any ideas on this fix without replacing all the plastic?

Maybe this time use a smaller drill bit. You might also need to drill a hole in to the frame of the car. The only other thing I can think of is to use a hing as a butterfly band-aid.

It sucks because a small thing like that can cost you hundreds to replace. You might try getting some Liquid Nail and seeing if you can glue the stuff back together.

What's Liquid Nail? I have never heard of that before, but it sounds interesting. I have been looking for a really good adhesive to solve some difficult problems.
