Default Bonding ABS

What's gonna give me the best bond when glueing two pieces of ABS plastic together?

CA Glue
Quick set JB Weld
Fiberglass repair?
something else?

Have a mounting tab on my motorcycle fender that was over tightened and cracked so I need to fix it. Thanks.

abs is pretty greasy plastic and takes special adhesives to work. go to an RV store and pick up the epoxy for repairing holding tanks......same plastic and the epoxy stays plyable

Actually go to TAP plastics or some other plastic supply and buy some WELD ON 3 or 4. Or you could go a hardware store and look for M.E.K. Methyl Ethel Ketone. It'll work too.
