    Maybe some industrial strength adhesive like E6000 in the grey tube would help...that stuff is the shit...holds everything...I use it around my house all the time. They have it at most hardware stores/home improvement stores...good luck man...
    Oh and ...btw...use a very small amount...a good thin layer on anything if you use this glue...both things you want to glue though, one on sticker one on cap...helps hold it better. Good Luck :D

    I think my girl paid like 40 for it..i think:(

    I have sitting infront of me High Tech seam sealer. Bonds to high solids paints, seals wet or dry surfaces, flexible will not harden, shrink, or crack...should i use that or something else?:(

    I have contact SSUSA thru AOl...but no responce, must be a really busy day there.

    CA adhesive

    If you are into modeling and have some CA adhesive lying around try it. If you never used it, let me give you one word of advice: "DO NOT GET IT ON YOUR HANDS" I have heard of people glueing two fingers together and unable to pull them apat without losing some skin. I use CA to glue rubber tires onto plastic rims for my Nitro burning RC. It holds pretty good, considering i can do 360

    I'm not trying to make light of your situation here, but IMO this is what happens when people automatically assume that Spoon (and other companies of their "caliber") is somehow better quality.

    That really blows. :(

    correct, and an OEM part would still be functioning perfectly as well. It looks like spoon just slapped their logo on a blank rad. cap.

    Hey where did you find the EP body? I have HPI RS4 that I have had for a little over a year. I just upgraded it to 2 speed tranny this summer. This is the third body, what can I say, I crash alot! She needs a new body and I have been looking for EP3 body, no one seems to have it. I even considered getting a Focus RS body and modifying, but could not find one with 200 mm width.
