@ audiophilitis: Use 3M dp420, clean the outside of the insert and the hole with isopropyl alcohol. Put a thin film on the outside of the insert and in the hole in the deck lid. Screw the insert into the hole using a socket head cap screw or one of the wing attach bolts with a light coating of grease on it ( to prevent any stray epoxy from bonding it to the insert). Set the insert so it is a little bellow the surface. Let the epoxy set for at least 24hrs.
For those that like these winglets, I would imagine there’s an enterprising individual with access to a 3D printer (using a suitable media) that may produce similar results at possibly half the cost or less...since these winglets are painted, the type of material may not be relevant. Just an idea...
and a good one...agree that material need not be exotic given fact that factory NACA, fender and rear ducts are made out of plastic.
