Yup...first I tried a plastic repair epoxy and well it lasted about 2 days. Then I tried a product called PC-7. See I work at Ace Hardware so I have access to alot of repair adhesives, etc. This stuff is awesome...it's a two part epoxy but it is a pain to cleanup if you get messy with it, very tar like. Just to tell ya how strong the stuff is...I have tapped it and perfect threads, and my boss told me at the convention he found the stuff at, they caste a bolt and torqued it down. I would use the PC-7 if you can find it. Good luck with the side skirt.

Just as a personal preferance I use epoxy that you can buy at like a hobby shop. Stuff is like 30min cure and strong as a rock when set. I had the stuff from when I used to build RC airplanes and it's very strong. It's a two part mix, but does wonders .

I have a set of 2g eclipse sides. I got them for free when I bought a bumper off someone. If you want to replace that plastic piece all together, then I can ship them out to you, I'll give you the side skirt piece, you just have to cover the shipping cost. I dont know what colour your car is, but the sides I have are black and grey. I offered them to another member, but he never followed up on my offer. I'm not putting these on my car so they are just taking space. If you want them, let me know, everything is in tact, they have all tabs and plastic bolts. Cheers

The skirts on my 95 pretty much did the same thing. When I tried to pull them off without cracking them any further, the skirt just cracked in half.
