Default Any Ideas?

Hey guys,

I have a skull gas cap medallion on my stock gas cap. I just changed it out for the billet skull gas cap so I want to put the medallion on my air wing horn cover. I have seen a few of these on ebay that cost like $100.00. I already have the horn cover powedercoated black and I just want to attach the medallion which I already have. Any suggestions on how to attach it? I thought about drilling a tiny hole in both and using a very small screw and nut. However if I can find an adhesive that will work I would rather go that route. It will need to be something that will not damage the powder coat, can withstand a lot of vibration, and is water resistant.

I am also needing to reattach my chrome swing arm inserts that fell off. This seems to be very common from reading on the forum, so suggestions for attaching them will be appreciated as well.
