    Buy a fibreglass fixing kit. Really easy to work with. Bog over the cracks, spray it up and done. If your living on the cheap give it a go. Easier then you think

    the bottom lip has actually been snapped in half well im presuming so because you have to move it back together and it needs a bit of force well a fibre glass kit fix this?
