The "proper" method to repair these covers use glue type material that cost almost as much as a replacement cover.
I tried a back yard repair:
The worse crack
notice the anchors for the plates
I stop drilled the crack keeping it from cracking farther.
I melted the cover.... it didn't hold.
As I was already using the impact bar from Kick-3 so I figured I would treat and paint that cover for re-use on our "new" Kick.
Treated and repainted.
Kick 3 had a front receiver hitch. For access I installed a flip-up plate holder (From a 70's GM car, with the gas tank fill under the plate.. mounted upside down.) It also helped when connecting up as a towd.
Lots of room under there!
