    well u can do what I did.....Make friends with an auto body guy, and get it for free. the 2 part expoxy is AMAZING it is flexable and work-able in 5 min.... Call Auto body supply shops in canada they will have it as well... I will try to get a hold of my buddy and find out the brand names.... I just call it the blue shit and the black shit......LOL

    My 2 cents....I use Crazy glue and baking soda....now for superficial cracks

    YUP...go ahead and try it...works like a charm....you know you want to ...hehehe

    The other method I use is a heat gun and an abs welding rod...need some skill for this one to set properly.

    BONDO...does not work...2 part epoxy does not last...

    There used to be a product called devcon steel putty....not the bland one, the shinny one...this stuff works

    He he, i have used the heat gun and abs rod too ...LOL Never again

    this stuff lasts.... Most modern cars panels r glued on with this shit now. I know 3 J-man auto body guys that all swear by

    "Evercoat" for Puddy

    And" Speed grip " for glue

    And one of them owns his own hot rod shop in calgay, its all he uses

    I cant really comment on its reliability mainly cause the repair and patch the 5th gen signals was done bout 4 months ago. but the total of 35 yrs of experience of friends say that this is the Shit, and i will never have a problem with cracks ghosting tru or coming back. In a yr or so i guess i will know 4 sure.

    I do know that the bondo or glass repair Sucks a giant bag of dick. Was a waist of time and money last yr
