Don’t really matter now as I’ve reversed into another car in broad daylight ..should have my eyes tested... if anyone says” you should had gone to spec savers” I’m not in the mood ...
Glass fibre sheet bond underneath Richard with a good bead of superglue on the break edge. Should do the trick.So today I managed to snap my engine cover shroud in half by trying to refit the airbox intake section!!!! Yes I know I should have removed it first!!! lol
Any ideas how I can fix it other than the norm of superglue! Is there anything else on the market that might help?

Gorilla tape on top as a temporary fix. Turn it over and stitch it together with a broad tip soldering iron (plunge and twist motion). Practice with a broken bumper. With a bit of practice you can achieve a high level of finish.So today I managed to snap my engine cover shroud in half by trying to refit the airbox intake section!!!!

I once repaired a badly shattered Honda Gold wing fairing using this method and after painting you couldn't see the repair.

Mmmm, I was under the impression Brian had these made specially so they fit OEM like for like thus no trimming required.Replaced the front and rear cabin filter with new ones from BMR. Had to trim the rear one down as it was about 15mm longer than the old one and wouldn't fit in the space properly.
So was i, but it wouldn't fit for 2 reasons :Mmmm, I was under the impression Brian had these made specially so they fit OEM like for like thus no trimming required.
I rang Brian @ BMR today to discuss this issue and he will liase with his supplier again regarding final like for like size. Ive fitted mine today after Brian guided me over the blower and its fine and I did not need to trim it either my new one was 4mm longer equating to 1 pleet worth too long but its in and ok. I also fitted a few more bits he sent me and still have my front ARB poly bushes to do which I'm waiting for a nice dry day so I can crawl under and do those. Ive kept my old filter for ref: if anyone needs the Nissan model part number off it albeit did need changing.So was i, but it wouldn't fit for 2 reasons :
1. When side by side the replacement was 15mm (ish) longer than the Nissan original
2. The Nissan filter has really flexible edges and is easy to bend to get it in, the replacement is relatively stiff so it's slightly more tricky to get in.
Once trimmed though, it was fine.
