Watch out for your mechanic he's trying to work you-

If it was me I'll take out the Rad-clean it good/repaint it and apply my magic sealant so called JB weld/ABS glue-I've done it so many times and it works if its done right,then I'll sell it to you-is that okay

Why plastic its lighter

Watch your back pocket.lol
