well someone tried to jack the car up. do you have wheels that might be attracted to sticky fingers?
youll have to take those 2 bolts out, clean that area thats cracked, etch it somehow, and glue it back together. unless you have some plastic repair hanging around id try (i hate to say this but it works) jb weld. so long as you get the area clean and roughed up well enough the adhesive will hold. then just spray a little touch up on that spot. probably wouldnt hurt to put some kind of reinforcement between the fender and the adhesive.
after a few miles of driving there will be enough road dirt covering it up you probably wont even notice.
foggy headlights? wetsand... buff... WAX!!! if nissan motorsports is nismo does that mean honda motorsports is homo?

i got the car on the 4th of april.... and i got it from a dealership. so i don't know
-Remove the two attach bolts.
-Take a #30 or 1/8 in dia drill a stop hole right at the crack leading edge or apex.
-Using sheet metal (i would use .040" aluminum, with about a T3 hardness, but really any metal you got kicking around will do the job) I would fabricate a doubler repair with an 90 degree angle bent into it and I would glue that to the back side of the panel, with the angled part orientated down, to match the shape of the panel.
- Using the attach bolt holes in the panel as a guide, match drill the attach bolt holes into the metal doubler.
-Make sure the bracket that the panel attaches to is straight.
- attach the re-inforced/repaired panel with the attachment bolts to the bracket.
After that, you will never have to worry about that crack getting worse.
