i just bought a lip for very cheap. it has 2 big cracks in each corner that tried to be fixed with some kind of glue,
so here is my objective
fix the cracks and preventing it from cracking again.

here is how i plan to do this
1) sand down the lip from the inside and put several layers of fiberglass with a bendable piece of thick aluminum inbetween the layers of fiberglass

2)sand down the entire outside of the lip and apply a even layer of fiberglass cloth and sand it down evenly
3)im thinking of appling bondo over the fiberglass to make the surface very smooth for paint
4) this is where i started to think extra durable lip. i want to roll on sevral coats of rubber truck bedliner material for all those rocks(cats) on the road.

well yeah thats my plan so far for this weekend. if you have any suggestion let me know
