Hey guys, had a wreck while racing on a closed track. Do you think a good fiber glass guy could fix this? Split on top and in the middle.
 
Of course it's fixable. They always look bad but they are not.
When you buy your new trim ( the aluminum piece that surrounds the grille) use it to set the broken header the right distance apart and at the correct angle.
Good luck.
 
I presume this is ABS plastic, if so, it is really easy to fix without using fiberglass. Buy or find some spare black ABS pieces and melt them in a small jar of acetone to make a milkshake consistency of plastic. Use that to fix the grill as it will chemically weld the plastic together forming a strong as original bond that can be sanded down. It is very easy.
