to repair it: you need to drill small holes parallel to the crack ever inch or so. Then sand the outside and inside of the splitter with two different grit sand paper. Then use fiber glass and resin on the back side to "glue" it together. After it has harden and dried you can sand the outside smooth and repaint it.
