3M makes a product called Automix 8115, good stuff. Same kind of panel bonding adhesive used to glue the rest of the car together

Lord brand Fusor products work. Marine-tex gets good grades on the forum. West System 105 epoxy resin and 1.5 ounce mat have their fans. Google fiberglass repar or delamination and have a ball reading creative, effective ways to stick your car back together. Many of the links originate here.
