Not sure where to post this, but anyways, the front of my side skirt is cracked and I was wondering if anyone know if I could repair it and with what? Let me know. Thanks!

Gind out splintered or cracked areas to about half it's original thickness. Then apply top quality epoxy resin and tight woven cloth to the damaged area to bring it back to the original thickness. After the repair has cured, do this same process to the backside of the damage area. By doing the front and back of the area and by grinding down halfway through the part each time, you will get rid of all the cracks.

Unless you have worked with fiberglass before, you should contact a body repair shop to help out. Chances are you'd be better off just living with it... or buying new skirts.
