Both of our "hoods" failed. Lucky for us, they failed in the driveway. I wrote about it on this forum about a year ago and got a similar response from John and others. I bolted the hoods in place with 4-6 1/4" bolts plus new adhesive (with no paint on the metal)... the way they needed to have been assembled at the factory, IMHO. It is easy to show the tensile and shear strength of steel bolts to anyone. The weak point in the bolted assembly is probably the fiberglass under the head of the bolt. They haven't budged since. The glue joints in the fenders have not failed so far. WB is still in business whereas many other MH companies are gone so they must be doing ok...even with the failure rate of the glue joints.
