There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Not a recall, some owners have managed to get theirs replaced outside of warranty but others (like me) have not. Seems to be at the whim of whoever picks up the phone at BRP.
Depending on where they have cracked then they can normally be welded back up and at the same time strengthened - normally by adding a rod behind and some triangular bracing at the ends
Or alternatively dump the rear fender and go for one of the two options shown in that other thread - that's what I did
There is a lot of vibration at both the rear fender and those supports which is why they fail.

I feel your pain..
Just went through a similar issue with support failure on both sides. And being my GS is no longer under warranty, BRP will do nothing to correct the issue. Even though it's a documented issue. So I bit the bullet, spent the $245.94, and ordered the Sport Rear Fender off of eBay. Instal was pretty easy, and it looks pretty awesome.
