**Super Glue Fix**: If you’ve got a crack or break, just grab some super glue. Clean the area first, apply a thin layer of glue, and hold it together for a minute or so. Let it dry completely before you race again. It’s quick and usually holds up pretty well!

**Plastic Welding**: If you’re dealing with a larger break, you might want to try plastic welding. You can use a soldering iron to melt the edges of the broken pieces together. Just be careful not to overdo it, or you could melt more than you want!

**Epoxy for Strength**: For those serious repairs, mix up some epoxy. It’s super strong and works great for filling in gaps or cracks. Just make sure to sand down the area a bit before applying it for better adhesion. Once it’s cured, you can paint over it to match the body.
