Default HELP! I made a broken.

With my amazing driving skill, I managed to break (another!) front wishbone on my SX2.

Trouble is, this time it also cracked my 'holder' for the front roll bar.
See the piccie (ignore the random amish looking guy in the background!)



Any thoughts on how I can fix this - got a race tomorrow night, and would value the old rollbars being in place.

Thanks guys!

Cheers Carl, fair point.

However, it seems a bit of a crappy design to me anyways - and Im worried that I'll just be constantly making new bits as these keep breaking.
The rears are much better, with anodized ends fitting into ball joints to allow movement but keep it all together.

I wonder if there is a reason for the simpleness of the fronts, or a way to make them better?
