Hello!
I on my way to replace a rear quarter panel and wonder what type of glue to use between the outer an inner panel? Original there was a thick layer of red foam similar glue. It has to build up a realy thick layer to tighten a gap between the panels.

Glue or something for rear quarter panel-

Re: Glue or something for rear quarter panel-
Use a few hefty dollops of polyurethane adhesive for a lasting seal, or silicone sealant for something more removable.
Either will bridge a gap, as the dollop flattens.

Just a shame Citroen didn't use it (or enough of it) otherwise there would be a few more bx's surviving.
