JB weld is the ****, just make sure and scratch up both surfaces to give the **** something to grip to. If its smooth sooner or later the bond will break!
I tried every different kind of epoxy to get my dumb stainless steel door handle covers to stop falling off. Even marine epoxy did not work, so I took a dremel bit to the door handle and the cover, JB welded them both, duct taped them together to dry and they have held for eight months now! Even through winter.
