a rough scuff on both surfaces, 2 part epoxy applied to both surfaces, drill-screwed, 3 inches on center, to fender and let to cure for a week before driving.
removed screws after 3? months. 2 years later, zero cracks,zero imperfections and that's without body stiffening and a V8 car. so you know that body is flexing. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) i would definitely do it again. |
