Default Center console lid

For the last hour (and usually I'm fairly good at finding what I need) I have tried using the search but to no avail.
Somewhere I saw a good write up on how to fix the curled up edges on these console lids.
Could someone that remembers it or maybe even the one that wrote that repair please steer me in the correct direction or give me the link to it. I'd rather fix mine than have to spend the $150-200 for a new one if possible.
Thanks in advance.

This might have what you need, but a lot of the pictures are gone.

Glad to see that posted link. I'm new to Corvettes and the forum. I joined the forum, mainly to track these DIY fix-it ideas.

My 92 console lid has exactly this same "peeling" away issue. I wonder why it is on the right side like so many others stated in the linked thread.

Anyway, I'll be attempting the plastic wrap and adhesive repair in the coming weeks. There are 1 or 2 must repair items ahead of this.
