You can either use superglue/cyanoacrylate for an immediate bond, but be careful of putting too much on in case of the glue fogging your paint work. Alternatively, you can use 2-part Epoxy resin, which will give you a stronger bond when dry. you may have to hold it in position until it sets (4-5 mins).
If you plan to paint the whole body, including the mirrors/wing, then you'll get away with just normal liquid cement. If you want a really strong bond, drill a little hole in the part and insert a metal/plastic rod. Glue this in, and then drill a corresponding hole in the body and glue that in accordingly. Hope this is of some help. |
