got it decent looking and holding up ok after fixing several cracks
1. drilled a few 1/16 holes each side of the cracks and key crack points and stitched it with extra thin SS wire from the hobby shop
2- Tried several plastic glues on PP plastic and got nowhere (bondic.. Plastic Welder) 🙁 They had work on my 75hp ETEC lower cowl bolt cracks but not this 3.3hp plastic stuff)
3- Inside the cowl I installed 2-3 layers common sticky fiberglass drywall tape over major cracks
4- Covered up the taped areas with 2-3 layers of Lepage contact glue (white stuff and dries clear) and HOLDS GREAT on the polypropylene plastic cowl
5 – Sprayed everything with my can of ETEC blue paint
6- rebolted everything up …holds up fine and not to bad looking
7- the side latch (missing) and UNAVAILBALE was replaced with a 1/8 hole hole in the upper cowl and a…blue tye wrap 🙂
