I just bought one brand..but it is not even sticking to the plastic....

I would imagine some sort of hardcore araldite would be the go... something that will cope with a hot day cabin temp.

The plastic is too "greasy" to be glued, so you're out of luck on that front.
You can have the plastic "welded" using a soldering iron to close up the crack, then throw on some car filler, sand it flat and spray paint it.
Alternatively try and get your hands on a carbon fibre surround like many of us have had to do.

G_A_V did something similar when he did his carpc:

Unfortunately the links to the pics are broken so you might need to get him to fix them up.
Actually, I think scarecrow had a go at fixing it as well:

And of course his picture links are broken too
