Ghettocure 

When your pedicure is chipped but you have no time or money to get it redone so you paint over it to get by

The act of fixing things in a cheap and aesthetically not pleasing way
Damn I have a date in half an hour and my toenail chipped. I'm just gonna ghettocure that sh$@)

My dresser drawer broke so I just ghettocured it with some duct tape.

My car window won't roll up, so I ghetto cured it with a garbage bag and tape

My fence broke and I can't afford a new one so I ghettocured it with rope.
