Default Fixing ATV Plastic

My Father-in-Law game me an older 4 Wheeler. It is mechanically sound -- actually, it runs really well. But two of the fenders are cracked. I would like to know if anyone has any tips on repairing ATV plastic. I would also like to know if anyone has any tips on painting ATV plastic.

Thanks in advance!

I painted atv plastic I just used an exterior primer and spray paint scratched the plastic a little with sandpaper primed and then painted it. For cracks I drilled holes on each side of the crack and used zip ties to close it up run it from the underside so the square end is underneath and it is just a plastic strip it looks decent and works.

I've used a product called Plastex to repair plastic cracks on my motorcycle and would highly recommend it for about any plastic repair. This stuff really is like welding plastics. Works great and is easy to use. It'll fix your plastic ATV parts for sure.
