Radiator cracked

Hi guys, was not here for a while busy with my other project - Porsche 928 GT. I was using my SVX extensively for couple months and now during check I spotted cracks on upper side of radiator. Why the hell they did it from plastic??? So upper plastic part has several cracks which are bleeding with AF fluid. Seems to me it is integral part with whole radiator. Is there any fix of it? Can be replaced only upper part or whole radiator? Thanx for any EU advice, do not plan to buy this unit in the states. It is pretty urgent as now unfortunately have to rely on SVX:-(.
Thanx a lot, Petr

Re: Radiator cracked

Some people have had success taking them to companies/shops dealing with radiators and having aluminum tanks put in place of the stock plastic parts. That is the best option. If you need something to get you by for a few days, people have used JB weld or similar products to make it last for a few days/weeks.
