Hi,

I've got a pair of these

Plastic cycle wings fitted to a kit car. One has developed a crack near to the mounting hole. I think they are 'ABS'

Would your Vuduu glue be suitable to repair it by sticking another piece of ABS under the cracked area?

Thanks,

ABS is fine.  it will slightly etch the surface which helps. Key the surface and give it a good clean and degrease and you should be good for bonding.
