Default Hood separation.

The hood skin is bonded to the hood frame with heavy adhesive. Well its separating. Has anyone found a good way to fix this. The bonding epoxy is over $100 for a tube plus the cost of the mixing gun. At that price I may as well buy a new hood. I don't have a welder and I'm not sure about warping the skin anyway. Though about mixing some epoxy but not sure how to get it in between the surfaces. Any other ideas?

Loctite, silicone, super glue, duct tape, zip ties, scotch tape, bubble gum.

You got options!

(The list starts with serious suggestions, then gets to jokes)

Liquid nail, cheap and it does the job. Just be sure to let it dry well...

That's disguisting. Hats a red flag for moving in with each other if you ask me:/
