Has anyone ever successfully repair this part with epoxy, or a heat gun (melting the plastic) or anything that lasts? Mine is pretty screwed up, but it seems like a relatively insignificant part.

I believe this part is also called colloquially skid plate, belly cover, splash guard, or wind plate.

Here are some more pictures of it all broken:

Not with the methods you mention.

Drilling holes in it either side of a split and using cable ties is a good way to repair it. Leave at least an inch of distance from the split so there is enough plastic for strength.

Glue/epoxy/etc won't last 5 minutes.
