it's the fiberglass that creates the strength of the item, the resin bonds the fibers together.

Thanks for reply, my Z06 is rear ended, so I've got a clip and am putting it together.

use polyester or epoxy resin. The epoxy is much stronger and adheres better. For a simple clip try any adhesive glue or gorilla snot.
