Dash has a huge crack

[73Tahiti_dream]

I am wanting to repair the crack directy in the middle of the dash right where my rpm gauge is and the gauge is falling through. It extends from the top corner all the way down the face of the dash. I know it happened due to some of my cousins stepping on te dash when we were little.
Should I brace the dash then try to repair it with fiberglass. What do yu think woud be the best method to use for repair and best to prevent from happening again? Thanks

i would just do what you said and ya leave the brace in lol so it will be stronger

What's with the lol? Does that mean you wouldn't use the brace and do something different?
