A fix for the crappy gu flares. 1 has fallen off and two with broken clips
Need a solution. I'm thinking maybe some glue

New mounting clips?

I have the same problem.

Also my tail light plastic housing is all loose and wobbly and broken. Maybe get someone to plastic-weld up the broken parts?

Im looking around for some from wreckers or something. Might find a written off gu thats had a head on or something.

I recently had my flare torn off by the Mrs in a carpark. After a previous post here I was recommended to use Loctite 480 to glue the flare (plastic welded clip part) mounts back on. Make sure you clap it for at least 24hours.

I'm still in the process on mounting it back on the car, but needs some new white clips for the panel work to put back together

GUJohnno,

Did you end up selling your GU, did you buy another rig or did you go to a 2wd.

It's going in the paper this week.
I'll buy a STD 2wd for the mo (hopefully buying a house this week) and then get a GQ shorty for hardcore/comps.
Prolly uterize it like so many others have done.
