    And it held up OK? Any particular ABS glue? I was going to go with epoxy.

    Used the plumber abs glue . Basicly abs plastic melted in acetone . Will take a pic latter . Used abs glue because repair almost like welding together since it melts together.
    Edit
    @drewskie
    This the abs glue I used .The JB weld plastic epoxy putty seems to to stick very well to the flare . Just tried this and will be using on a fender skirt I have to modify .This putty is the easiest to work with since it doesn't run . Just sand to bare plastic and should be good to go .If wanting to use epoxy or abs glue suggest small pieces of abs plastic so can build up repair area as abs glue and the epoxy is fluid . White thing on cut fender is the putty .
