Found the right hinge mount of my trunk cracked away from the lower casing on the weekend. The whole base of the hinge support has parted company from the case (these are the Don Muddiman armrest hinges.... but I'm not blaming them for the cracking).
Anyone have an experienced opinion on whether Plastex or JB Weld (or something else?) is best to recreate the mounting point?
At the moment I'm inclining toward using Plastex with some fibreglass cloth reinforcement from what I've seen on the youtube videos... although I'd have to get that shipped from the US via Ebay as not available locally as far as I can find.
