        It will only last a while before it starts again.. There is no known way to prevent it once it starts..

The 93-97 and very early 98's used a different glue that didn't react with the panel the way the May 98-2002 did.. Once the bubbles start there is no permanent fix.. Might look good for a year or so, but the bubbles will always come back.. So I have a panel off a 95 now..

                  Eek ,you're a bigger man than I am, no way would I attempt that myself. Looks like its going good though. You going to go back to the black triangle or put the stainless one on again?

                        Good luck on finding a junker.. Let me know if you need a hand once you have one.. Glue will be here in an hour, then the final moment of truth...

                              And done.. Total time invested, 1 hour. Total savings $400.. Painted and installed I was quoted almost $700... and that was the cheapest shop... And thanks to Lisa for helping me set the panel and not smearing the glue onto the car!!!
