    Anyone know what adhesive is used to adhere the plastic door panel mounting post plates to the door panel shown here?

    This is a carbon panel from a Speciale, but assume the glue is the same for all 458s... I found some threads referring to dealers re-gluing these, but haven't found indication of what adhesive it might be.

    The exact same thing happened to me while removing a door panel off of a Speciale. High strength, two-part (mixable) epoxy (as Dave00 had mentioned) will do the trick. Make sure you sand both surfaces and thoroughly clean before applying the epoxy.
