        Home Depot or Lowes with have a bunch of those products. In my opinion 3M makes the best epoxies/glues etc. I used JB Weld for temp fixes and stuff like that back in the day but after trying the 3M stuff there's no going back.

          I got the Quick Steel from Advanced Auto. Works just like putty. Real easy.

              I just used silicone. Not caulk or tub tile sealer-100% silicone. Works great and holds perfect. It can be cut off too, so it doesn't have to be permanent.

                dont give me that crap. you have a garage get a space heater. I was out in the sub 30 degree temps working on mine in the rain.

                Took the fairings off saturday when it was nice out. once I finished up installing the new oil cooler it started raining. did the mesh inside and let the glue set up over night. Waited for a break in the rain sunday to reinstall. Of course once I get them out there it starts raining. Oh well.

                            Good luck... Could you tell me where these three bolt sets go???

                            One of the MANY problems that I ran into, was not remembering where each of the three pairs of the smallest bolts went... Had two small bolts with rubber washers, two small bolts with steel washers, & two small bolts with no washers... Hmmmm... where do they go?

                            I put the rubber washered ones in the Third Eye panel ... The Steel washered bolts in the Windscreen rubber gromits that seem to just turn rather than tighten ... & The empty bolts up under the headlights in the Kat's chin . Speaking of the chin... is there an easier way to remove those dang push pins under the chin . Hurt the Heck out of my fingers. That's Tight as Heck.

                            Oh yeah ... did I mention that I got it all put together ... Just after pushing those Pushpins to lock them in ... I saw both of the TURNSIGNAL WIRES HANGING there . UUUGGGHHH!!!! Had to remove the whole left side but was able to reach the right side while it was installed . Thank God! Can't wait for the next mod now.

                                JaxKat....Thanks for the heads up on the different bolts. That tells me I should map out and mark every bolt as I remove them. My bolt set will be identical as I also have an 06 750. I`ll post up once they`re off.
