Default Auto Body question

Quick question for anyone that may know.

My Airwalker (authentic) lip recently cracked when a paint can fell off of a shelf in my garage and onto the lip of my S . Luckly no paint splattered.

Anyhow, the lip is cracked and I am curious if it is fixable. Basically, I wanted to see if I could get it "bondo'd" and then repainted. I would think this may be cheaper than purchasing a new front lip.

Anyone know if fixing a cracked lip is possible? Can you apply bondo to fiberglass?

Your input is appreciated.

Take care.

I have had my OEM lip fixed 3 time now. Not becasue it cracks on its own, but becasue I hate parking blocks.

The repaired spot will be the weakest part, but well worth it over buying brand new one.
