I recently bought a toms lip with the intention of fixing up the cracks in it, theres 2-3 2inch cracks going through it, 2 of which are going through it almost and 2 is just barely going through it. I need some ways to fix these since I'm fairly new to this. Would bondo work well or would I have to plastic weld it? I don't have a plastic welder but if that's what I have to do than I guess I have no choice.
