Broken Rear Body Clip: Fixable?

The rear tab that holds the body onto the car kinda busted off... does anybody have any tips as to how to fix this, or is this car destined to become a modification project.

The little tab that was there apparently also holds in the motor heatsink, so now my motors won't even lock down anymore...

At least the shell didn't break.

On the other hand, my Cheap Clone Celica rear clip hole on the body shell peice did break, but that's fixable with some model glue.

I don't like the way these cars lock together. It's too tight, and too much room for making mistakes like mine.

well yea i do what clockwOrk hav just stated, clip the rear then push the front done, quite straight foward actually, so im not sure how your rear tab just broke... but yea some duct tape could do the trick, or just use glue...
