I dropped a canister going through the outside patio doorway and the corner chipped away the plastic door frame. I see that these frames are all one piece and expensive and time consuming to replace. Is there a way to repair this? I tried using bi-component glue, but that turned yellow when dried. I was thinking of cutting a piece from an inconspicuous area and gluing it inside. Would there be a way to repair this without replacing the entire door frame?
EDIT: Looking around, I found a product called BOND & FILL which is a PVC bi-component cement. seems this would work to fill it up. Reviews on Amazon are not very good, but it seems the best choice for me now.

I personally do not think a PVC cement will give satisfactory results. I would probably:
1) find a thin gauge aluminum channel that fits over the broken frame, deep enough to cover the gouge, spray paint it to match, and silicone it down over the length of the frame. Or,
2) use automotive body filler, plane and sand to blend, than spray prime and paint the entire lower frame (perhaps this is similar to the "bond and fill" product you found, if so give it a try!)
