Update - Remember me saying how the lower tab was a real b!tch to release ? Well, when I went to remove the passenger side cover to paint it, I broke the tab off.

I ran down to the store and picked up this:



Reading the instructions, it recommends that you rough up the plastic to be glued to promote adhesion. I used a piece of 400 grit sandpaper and roughed up the tab sides and the cover area where it sits. Then I mixed it up and applied it:



I let it set for an hour or so and re-installed it. It works like a champ, although it is a little bit tougher to flex it over to remove the cover. It's not too bad but it is just stiff enough to warrant a comment. Still, it was better than buying a new cover for $42 and having to go through the painting process all over again.

I wanted to share a workable epoxy for ABS. Seems like I have spent a ton of money and time over the years for glues and such that didn't always work out so well. JB Weld seems to make good stuff !!

Looks like 3M double sided tape would have worked in that spot as well.

1. Excellent work and write up! If everyone else posted like this the world would be a better place.

2. I'll be upgrading to tow mirrors soon and didn't like the PTM isn't an option but I'll be doing it my self now. Thanks!
