    A pillar repair

    The plastic tabs that go into clips for my A Pillar are broken. Please tell me what you've used to successfully repair. Some glue, epoxy or whatnot is probably better than others for this. Whatta you say?
    Thanks

    Thanks- Link shows what I was planning to try. Also shows the brand of epoxy used which is quite helpful.

    If that does not help, and the tips are lost, use glassfiber mat and epoxy and reshape the tip. I did that on my M3 like that as well as on my E32 750
