Right side mirror damage

Recently I parked my 2015 Honda Fit EX in the Tijuana Airport parking garage and when I backed up my right side mirror was introduced to a concrete pillar.
The mirror(glass)is fine and the colored case popped off and looks fine as is the camera and motor inside the housing but the black trim that goes underneath the mirror ended up breaking into three pieces
What kind of plastic is this?
What kind of glue would be the best to reassemble the pieces?


ps...next time I wont be in such a hurry

If the plastic is the brittle type (hard plastic), try crazy glue.

yah, probably some pc-abs or something. super glue would be my choice too. then sand it down and spray some matte black paint and it should look nice again.
