ABS isn't special, the glue is.
You won't find it at an auto parts place. It's plumbing supplies. Go to Home Depot, Lowe's or your local hardware store.
Epoxy might work but it's glue and may not adhere to the ABS all that well.
ABS cement isn't glue. It actually MELTS the ABS chemically and when it cures you have solid ABS plastic. That's not what glue does... glue sticks two separate surfaces together. The surfaces themselves remain intact.
This stuff is more like welding. It melts both surfaces completely. There is no seam.
The trick is to keep it from getting on the outside of the fairing for obvious reasons. This is why you can still see the crack in my fairing, because the cement was not allowed to get to the surface (simply by not putting too much on).
