Thank you for making the video bro. Unfortunately my Chrysler 300s started to do the same thing and it’s been looking shabby in my eyes so I can’t wait to fix it.
Thank you @sumcrazyguy I have the same problem with my 2017 Chrysler 300c....but its all the door panels.Im going to give this a try and I hope it works.Thanks again bro!
As a Charger owner who had this problem, I have yet to find anybody that has used a glue/cement/epoxy that has lasted any significant time. The panel needs to be stapled into place to guarantee a permanent fix. This is the fix: ua-cam.com/video/0-EKSm4Yt1Y/v-deo.html&ab_channel=A.R.T.%27sRealRepairsforRealCustomers I did this 18 months ago and it worked perfectly. I bought a $30 staple gun from Harbor Freight and borrowed a small compressor from a friend. You can probably rent a compressor and staple gun for well under $100, and that's a bargain compared to the $1300 fix Chrysler proposed.
@@sumcrazydude OK that's great, but that's only 5 months. Let's see if it lasts a year, through four seasons (if that applies to where you live) I'm not criticizing you, just sharing my experience. To anybody that uses an adhesive fix, good luck, I honestly hope it works for you. none of us should have to deal with this BS in the first place
@@FrankCoit My passenger side went first and was so bad you couldn't rest your arm on it and you could see an inch of the white inside it from outside the car, then the driver side starting lifting, and that's when I tackled it. BTW, it's been about 18 months now since I did the fix and it still looks great.
You can also use a heat gun to loosen material put clamps on it to hold in place the take a staple gun 3/8 staples to hold in place. Then putting epoxy on it to cover the staples then paint it.
I’ve done this twice on the panel down by the shifter on my 300, and after a month it gives out. What specific glue did you use for the panel? I’ve tried 2 different plastic glues with no luck ☹️
Just curious what you used in the past that didn't work? I need to repair a charger panel as well. Was going to go with JB Weld until I saw this video.
@sumcrazydude used your idea last weekend on my wife's charger. Worked great, the epoxy seems super strong. I wonder if using a seam roller while the epoxy is drying would take out the divets. All in all it is a night and day difference, turned out great thanks...
Dude! I am going to fix mine!!! It's been driving me crazy! Thanks.
Am glad you seen it, it was also driving me nuts lol
I'm doing mine this Saturday... Same... It's been driving me nuts

Look at the time I released this video. That's how long it has been since I fix it and still holding strong

Is it always the passenger side? My drivers side is fine, but the passenger side keeps coming off

@kilroy2517 mine still holding too. It seems that glue runs hot and it molds the foam under the vinyl to stay in shape.
Thank you
Thank you
I'm curious is the panel still holding? For some reason mine keeps coming back apart, but I used different types of glues.
Mine still holding strong

@@lorifultzvanbeek2676 I used gorilla super glue. ill post later if it fails
@@reddyfreddyhow’s it holding up so far?
@@pumam9709 its holding up fine. otoh, my charger is a garage baby. *** gorilla glue ****
Does the epoxy hold over time? Im hoping, this shit was $90 plus I had to get a gun.. thanks for the ideas in the vid....
Yes it holds hard, I have left my car out in the sun for hours and still holds the shape.
Also thanks for the support 🙏

I am having a hard time getting the panel off. Can i fix it with it still on the car?
I wouldn't recommend it but, if you protect all other parts that are not related to the panel, I think it can be done while mounted.
Perfect🔥
Thanks
My center console is peeling away idk how to fix it 😭
The plastic just pops out! I just resealed mine & it looks so much better. I got body panel adhesive and used clamps/ my hands
My brother.... Is it still holding
Holding strong 💪
OK WHAT KIND OF GLUE DO I NEED? I WILL DO THIS WITH THE GORILLA TAPE AND A BROOM HANDLE.
Body molding glue
Cool another way to use duck tape 😂
Lmao
Why not staple?
Staples are not a consistent hold, eventually you will see where tha staple its holding
It loo great cn u do mine
I could but it be cheaper to buy a new panel than pay me lol
Where you located
Am am located in the swamp lands of the Florida states
Wish you were in California
Don’t feel bad. Porsches do the exact same thing.
Try "peel" instead of "peal" 😂
TRIM YOUR NAILS MATE!!
How else can I snort ma cocaine?
Lmfao
Dodge drop the ball no more dodge for me last time I buy cheap build American cars trash
