just wondering if anyone shares the same problem..

the glue in between the bonnet and the metal frame supporting the bonnet is starting to shatter

and drop bits into my engine bay and the same is happening with my boot lid.

i was wondering if this is a bad thing and if i shud fix it asap, i just don't want my bonnet to fly up in my face.

any help or advice appreciated

Sikaflex is the way to go!!

might sound stupid but what is sikaflex and can you buy it at repco or super cheap?

yes and yes if you ask nicely at the counter :dance:

 

it is like a really sticky glue and once it sets it doesnt really like to move again!!

Lucky I stumbled across this thread because my bonnet is doing the same thing with it's glue.

 

Sikaflex should be available at Bunnings too. (For those that like to do late night shopping on Monday to Wednesday)

mine is missing the glue completly from the bonnet and i used silicone on the boot but ran out for the bonnet

rather amusing when you go past trucks it looks like the bonnet is going to fly up

lol it might look a lil bit like this

 

just did mine yesterday..... you can use whatever you have around..... i used bathroom sealer which we used on our bath

works just like sikaflex........... silicone/no more nails will also do the job......

lol I'm sure your bonnet isnt just gunna fly in your face.....

good luck with it people

okay my bonnet is no where near that bad!

well i think if i got to 160kmph mine might do that, mines held on by the rust between the glue :|

lol

 

well this thread has helped more people than i thort it would

hehe like me?

 

bunning totally needs to expand their range of shite available to car people, or one of the car shops needs longer trading.

 

the supercheap back home in darwin recently extended their hours to 9m on fridays, i went there a lot in those times and store was always packed with people who can't shop in normal hours...
