72-74 Barracuda Grille

Can anybody tell me what type of plastic these grilles were made of? I have a couple of them with cracks and would like to fix them myself with a plastic welder. Any info would be greatly appreciated, thx Cuda Cowboy. Save the Mopars!!

I believe it is PVC.

I believe it is PVC.

Wrong. SEM weld is what you need. MoparMuscle Mag. Did a nice article on how to fix them start to finish.

SEM is a plastic repair product. Not a type of plastic.

I've got 3 grilles, 1 with 2 cracks dead center top and bottom of grille and lower tab below headlight missing, other 2 are cracked and missing pieces in various spots. All in all i can fix the primary 72 grille with ease if i know the exact material it is made of, and out of the other 2 - 73 grilles i can make 1 complete grille, just need to know again the exact plastic material to use so they all turn out nice. Any knowledge of the grille manufacturing material would be greatly appreciated to help save the Moparts, thx Cuda Cowboy.
