I've been searching for 4 years now for an early rain tray. I have my original, but it is trash because it split at one of the mountings. And, there is NO glue that will put it back together. Porsche used some sort of imperious plastic for these things!
I just counted them up (the responses indicating that the HAVE ONE & IT'S PERFECT) 87! Guess how many of the 87 had the proper part - 3! Guess how many had a useable part? ZERO! Isn't there someone out there with a flat bottomed rain tray that they want to make some money on? Yeah, I know, this doesn't belong on this forum. I'm desperate & about to give up! Please ..... help me! You can flame away after I find one..... Never mind - doesn't belong on this forum. Sorry. Desperate! Pat |

My brother in law used to use the 3M type stuff, it is called duramix. Yes the gun is kinda expensive, and a bag of tips for the gun is like $10. I know this, cuz I had him do something for me and my payment was buying him a new bag of tips. If you know anyone that does body work, I would totally ask them. This stuff is actually stronger than a weld. They tested it with their frame rack vs. welding. The metal that was put together with the epoxy stuff ripped apart on the side of where it was stuck together, the weld eventually gave way..
