Hood corner lifting up?

[psychos2]

they used glue to attach to metal discs that rust and seperate.i removed the insert and reglued with some 2 part epoxy. make sure it is fast drying or it will run and not stay in the spot you need it to. shawn

I agree...a two part Epoxy is the best remedy for that little fix.

This may be way too "industrial" looking for most & so far it's just a random thought. What does anyone think of removing the stock fastening posts on the insert, drilling through some or all of the former post positions & refastening with stainless cap screws w/ washers through the orig. mounting holes in the hood? You could even incorporate a couple of hood pins.
It would make insert removal for drainhole cleaning way easier.

Inquiring minds wanna know. Ldub

Probably because it took only 5 minutes to fix it with the two part epoxy and a little sand paper... But, good idea if you have the time.

I had the same problem a while back and used Gorilla Glue. I took it off for a day. Haven't had the problem again. it's been almost a year since it happened.
