Tab lowering enfini + question at the end

[tobenjunk]

If I find a digicam I'll get some pictures tomorrow, but sheesh I had a heck of a time tab lowering the yellow enfini.

I picked up a cheapo 8$ 12v rotary tool kit from Harbor Freight. (10$ online, 8$ sale in Tustin, CA)

I started off by shaving off the tabs. I tried putting on my enfini to see how low it could go and got nothing. It couldn't sit any lower.

Now the enfini has got the uglist front lip I have ever seen on a zipzap so I was pretty determined to get that closer to the ground.

The second thing I tried was unscrewing and removing the plastic clip on the front of the PCB. This helped a little but there still seemed to be something getting in the way.

I flipped over the enfini shell and sure enough by the front lights were two little plastic pegs keeping the wires out of the window. I clipped them off with a pair of scissors and tried fitting the enfini on my chassis again.

GAH! I could now lower the front but the back wouldn't budge. I pressed and mashed and eventually saw thru the rear window that the black "box" was hitting the light circuit board thing on the body.

I figured I could get around this by sanding down the "box", but after about a millimeter later I exposed some strange wire things. This obviously would not be the solution.

Now at this time I've already tried fitting my savanah and it looks cool but it just ain't low enough. I read that Bad Company got his savanah even lower by removing the light circuit board completely. I figured it wouldnt be too hard to try myself so after some plying and pulling I was able to tear off the leds and light circuit. (The pieces are a lot more fragile than I expected!)

But even with my slightly "box sanded" chassis, I couldn't exactly get my enfini's butt to lower. I then had the idea to break the plastic peg that sat underneathe the light circuit board.

I unscrewed the light circuit board, pulled the wires up and out, and left myself with enough room for a scissor to move in and snip out some pieces of plastic. This let the light circuit hug a lot closer to the ceiling and the end result was a decently lowered enfini. :]

BUT

Now my question is how the heck do I attach my new tab to my shaved chassis. I tried a model plastic cement from Testors, followed the directions, but the tab fell off after I slightly wiggled it with my finger. :T

Anyone have some ideas or suggestions for some crazy ass glue I could use?

THANKS!
