At least the split is so straight, it almost looks like a seam.
An easy way to repair/limit more damage:
On the underside, use fiber tape and E6000 glue. Rough up the plastic with sandpaper for bite. I used this method on my R2D2 scooter’s front fender and it worked well. The E6000 glue is flexible, but strong enough to keep it together.
The attached pic is the fibertape before adding the glue. Yours would be on a much smaller scale, of course. That whole fender was split pretty badly, but is holding up nicely.
You could always try some sort of epoxy, as well.
That is exactly my plan. My amazon order came in, I have JB Weld plastic epoxy, black. I planned on using some fiberglass mesh tape and the epoxy, after roughing the underside. Have no idea when next that panel will come off, but when it does, I should be ready.
