What would be the best way for me to reattach this broken attachment point?
I am not sure if washers would hold due to the ripped plastic. Any ideas appreciated! Thanks!

 

I don't think I'd waste my time. Go to the wreckers and get another one.

 

If you look closely you can see that mine is zip tied on. That's one way to do it.

Or you could just buy/acquire a new one.

If you know anyone with a plastic welder you can try that

 

Plastic welder or epoxy it very good. If you epoxy yopu could use a bolt that sticks out and a wing nut.

 

A soldering iron and some plastic would work too. Any of these should work just fine.

 

Jb Weld It!!!!

 

If is is ABS plastic, ABS glue/solvent (from the plumbing dept) will mend it. It should be labeled as to the type of plastic. The grill is ABS, for example.

 

Junk yard, it cant be that expensive.

 

Drill a hole and zip tie that sumbtch

 

Bypass it, mines been out for about 3 years.

 

^ x2 ISR mod will take care of that. coming soon to mine

 

thanks for all the replies, I have lots of ideas now. I had not even heard of plastic welders before, I thought it was a joke at first...then I checked online and realized it was serious!! thanks for telling me about that.

I am curious about the bypassing option...what is the name and purpose of this box anyways, and if I bypass it is there any disadvantage or positive effect?

I have the ISR mod and the FIPK.

 

It's just a resonator box, the sound of your engine will change a little bit.

 

wrecking yard would probably best but you could possibly jb weld a washer in there

 

If there's enough plastic 'meat' left you can drop a hot washer on there and let it melt into the plastic. I've used that trick a time or two and it's worked fine on other stuff.

 

there are so many good ideas in here. I love that idea of melting a hot washer into the plastic. also the idea of bypassing it entirely. the solution I finally followed was (I quote) Burnstar's solution to: "Drill a hole and zip tie that sumbtch"
thanks guys that worked great, if it happens again I will bypass it entirely or get a new one
thanks again for all the tips!!!!!!!! I learned a lot from this thread!!!!!
