1966 Pontiac GTO Grill Mounting Tab Repair

thingiverse

My GTO grills had 3 broken mounting tabs where the J-nuts attach to the grill. I printed these in solid PLA (Probably any stiff material will work) and attached them to the grill using an epoxy designed for use with plastic. I used a Dremel tool (a file would probably work) to sand the broken areas smooth and then held in place using blue painters tape. I used the non-broken tabs as a reference to make sure the it's level and then let the epoxy fill in any caps. Make sure it's clean and oil free before applying the epoxy.
