Picked up a header panel earlier today. There’s a couple of cracks along the top. Was wondering what would be the best way to repair them?

If the cracks are small just use resin

Are they easily found in hardware stores or special order only?

Boating stores will have a good selection of fiberglass stuff as well.

Did someone say fibreglass?

Wonder, can you post some photos? The resin to glass ratio Jeep used makes it a bit tricky to work with, lots of glass, not much resin.

You don't want to used the stuff bought in hardware and auto parts stores.
