How to repair broken dash/center console panels?

Those peice are so dang brittle. How can one repair them? Fiberglass on the back side? I figured that would be more permanent than something like jb weld on the back side.

Let me know.

the best way would be to buy a plastic welder even a cheap one will do. You can pick one at harbor frieght pretty cheap.

Well, I fixed it today. I first superglued the parts together. Then, used quick steel on the back side.

Hard as a rock.
