Taillight fix

Installed my new taillights today and the lense cracked. See pics. What do u guys think is the best way to fix? It's a clean crack.

Buy a new one unless you have a way to mend broken plastic.

If they are new, than return them for un-broken ones?

The lense was not cracked until I pushed it into place. Got on Ebay and am awaiting the answer for replacement. The crack is all the way through with the broken piece being completely free.

Strange. Are they GM parts or are they aftermarket? If it's a truly new part, either way, I think you are doing it right by trying to work with the seller.

Fixing that wont look pretty - it'll be hard to get the crack to blend in and not diffract light, highlighting the crack.

Hey Jonnydz,
I don’t mean to dredge up ill feelings but I am curious.
You never said, did the eBay seller “MAN UP” and take care of you?
I’m hoping that’s what happened and you are enjoying those dark tails.

BTW: They do look Sweet!
