I bought a Weller model 8200 soldering iron. It comes with a flat blade for plastic welding. Plastic welding works real well for getting loose parts in place but doesn't offer much strength.

I welded it back together, smoothed it over with body filler and painted it and a couple of months later it started breaking apart. I repaired it again the same way a couple more times and it kept breaking until I went over the back side with the epoxy and cloth. It then stayed together even when the car was rear ended again and broke in other places than where I repaired it.
