Any idea what this is and how to fix it?
Saturday, August 12, 2006 12:23 AM
ok, here's my problem: I took off trim piece on my '03 Sunfire's passenger side and it snapped. I tried Super Glue Epoxy Adhesive, VersaChem 60 sec. epoxy, Perma Poxy 5 min. Plastic Weld, ABS glue, Gorilla glue, nothing seemed to hold this piece of ...car together. Gorilla glue was holding it for like a week and then it became fragile and cracked. I took off same trim piece off another Sunfire (purple), but, unfortunatelly it cracked and little piece broke off. I'm looking for something I could sand, primer/paint.
Any ideas?
ThnX!
P.S. I don't wanna pay over $200 for that at dealership.

ThnX again

well since u have it off the car u can work on it better, if u want a permenant fix u would want to use 3M Automix for flexible parts im sure, but u will need to sand paint and primer off and apply this and sand down the excess and repaint..

there are plenty fo cheap small ways to connect it but if u want a permenant fix use that stuff i mentioned.

i dunno if ur having a problem putting that panel back on but i think Shifted should be able to tell u what to use to put the panel back on.

ThnX Manta Z(The Primered One) for the advice.
I just put SEM 68432 general pupose adhesive and it seems to do the trick; I'm gonna wait on it for few days and see what happens. Anybody used this stuff (SEM gpa) before?
