Default fiberglass help. shell casings all broke and cracked

hi, my golf carts pretty beat up and chopped. so its pretty much completely custom. the problem with that is, i have no clue what make or model it is, so therefore i cant buy a new shell for it and dont want to. any ideas on how to fix the cracked up and broken fiberglass? thanks! and how to build a new roll cage/roofing

I'd start by figuring out what you have. Go over the frame and engine and search for numbers. Its also great to post a couple of pictures. Believe me, someone here will identify it in a New York minute! Pics are always needed when you post questions and good luck

I am with Abieex on that, shoot some pics, someone can ID it quick!

As far as fiberglass repair. it's not bad, to fix cracks, just drill holes at each end of the crack to stop it then use a grinder to bevel the crack and repair with chopped mat and resin or fiberglass reinforced filler(depending on size of the crack)

you can pretty much do anything with those bodies for repair with Chopped mat and resin. add to both sides, build it up, then grind it down to shape then body work to paint. it's a little more expensive but repairs are simple in process.

Fear not! it can be repaired! make sure you invest in a good filtered mask and gloves! safety first!
