PS3 Repair Question

I my PS3 fell from about 6 feet onto concrete. Everything still works just fine in it, it is just scuffed up and two of the corners are damaged and missing some plastic. I have taken it a part and need to fix these small damaged area before I sand and paint it.

What is going to be a good way to fix these corners? Something that will last not be noticeable, be able to me trimmed and sanded down to fit?

Melt them. Or at least heat them up so they can be molded into rounder shapes.

They are missing some small pieces of plastic or I would try to heat it up a little and then mold and sand it back in shape.

I need some type of filler that will bond to the plastic that I can shape and mold.

You can use bondo and add a chunk to where your ps3 was chipped, sand it down as it was before and paint over it (probably KRYLON BLACK).

You can always by a replacement case, what SKU was your PS3?

I am not positive I just went to look but I am fairly sure I pulled that sticker off for when I paint it. It is the 60 GB version with the chip in it for PS2 games. I looked all over where i could buy replacement plastics for the PS3 and couldnt find anything.

make a custom case with a better cooling system. painting cases, its cool for the first few you see but a totally custom case is a lot cooler.
