I think that you can repair if use the same hinge nylon and cover it with fiber glass (for the botton side, not over the paint.

)
For you are sure that the hinge run perfect you paint the center of the nylon with wax paint for childrens, do you know ? this way the epoxi not glue in the center and the hinge will work perfect.
