Question Not sure what section .. So question on fog light housing that was .... *PICS*

Busted by a large truck kicking up a sizable piece of rubber and launching it at my little yaris. Damage luckily was only the housing and some rubber marks on the bumper. I pulled out the fog light cover and fog light itself. I'm trying to figure out what plastic it is made of so I can glue the tabs back on and mount it back up. Good thing the light still works. Sucks going from a 4x4 truck to a tiny car with road debris all over SoCal

















My first run in with a chuck of metal I couldn't avoid!

Hole in my gas tank a month ago!!

The PBT on the back says that it is Polybutylene terephthalate.

The most effective adhesive I have found for plastics like this is Plexus MA310:
