Running Board question
I posted this on Samba since STF was down, and got a bunch of snide remarks (that's why I don't post there in the first place!). So here goes again:
I picked up a new set today. The cheap Brazilian kind. Anyway, the ends of the boards have rubber that overlaps (goes past) the board by 1/2 inch or so. Should I try to glue that rubber around the bend, or do I just trim it even with the board? The rubber also seems to be not glued in some spots, what type of glue should I use to fasten it? I tried a little weather stripping cement, but I'm not sure it'll work. Contact cement seems too messy. Thanks

RTV should be good to glue it. it might work for folding it over. probably worth the try and if it comes back up, then trim it. i have c/f running boards and used vacuum hose to finish the edges. might work in your case too.
no snide comments here.

That's why I love this forums. Just answers. I plan on CF boards in the future, but right now I just needed something. Thanks Zen.
