Default ABS Plastic Repair

I have a couple of the lugs broken on the outer fairing that recieve the screws for attaching the inner fairing to it. The lugs are of course, ABS plastic and I wonder if anyone knows what works best to re-attach them and what products or methods are a waste of time.

JB Weld would be my choice.

I have a similiar issue with one of the lowers on my ultra. The ring clamp that fastens around the engine guard has been broken off. Hey ssandstrom have you had any luck with your problem yet?
