Repairing cracked plastic

Hi guys,

I've gotten myself a practically untouched 98 4runner besides the odd few cuts. Progress is going slowly but coming along nicely. I only just noticed this large crack in the cars right rear side-wall.

My options are to head to a "PickApart" and find a replacement wall or repair it. I was thinking there's going to be some kind of glue maybe I could use. What are your thoughts on how I should repair this. Finding a replacement would be difficult and more costly in the end.

Here are some pictures.

For plastic repairs like that, I like to use plastic weld epoxy. Its super strong, and can be found in any hardware store. It can be sanded and painted too. Good luck!
 
Maybe even place some type of backing behind the two pieces your glueing together, and even glue it at the same time kinda increase the surface area of the glued section.
