Basically, the fender is plastic. I used this stuff before and it works great.

Fenders are ABS Plastic like the black drain pipes under some houses. Home Depot sells the ABS Black glue. Depends on what you are trying to fix, big cracks will required a backing be installed before the glue. Just build the area up with glue and filler. I usually jusy watch for a cheap feder on EBAY and paint it to match my bike. Good Luck, Spur

same repair as you would do for car bumpers.

I recently repaired an old ZX6 Ninja tail section Worked well using the plastic welding system. Still needed filler if you wanted to paint over it later.
