shoe goo?

[bonicjar]

I'm bout to put on my lower grill and I went to Autozone and got shoe goo. That's what was suggested by other members. I'm reading the tube and it's for sneaker repair! Just checkin if this is the stuff I want?

its silcone sticky shit, like a clear tar....insted of that why not just make sum tiny holes and use small screw and nut...lot more professional

[rtgrouchman]

Just put in my inserts with that stuff...works great :biggthump Still have to install the lower insert though.

[BlackDak]

Yes, you got the right stuff. Shoo Goo works great. As far as it not being professional, take a look at my install. It's completely invisible. It has been holding up perfectly for several monthes now. The epoxy I tried the first time cracked and the grills were coming loose. This will NOT come loose!

That looks awesome...i just ordered my grill yesterday upper and lower.... was wandering should i remove the black fins from the factory for the upper or can you leave them on there, i haven't looked at it...can they be removed with out ruining them incase i dont like the look?

[BlackDak]

Yes, absolutely remove the factory "inserts". You'll never want them again. They will remove without destroying them, however, just grind out the plastic spot welds and the whole assembly comes right out.

Thanks...its just a waiting game now...should have them Mon or Tues i would think...can't wait

[platinumDAK]

you dont need to grind you use a small set of wire snips..easy
