I've done rear clip, front clip, and side panel replacements and partial replacements when I had my shop without ever an issue down the road (some older than 10 years now) with repair shrinkage. I've always used a 3M marine grade resin and adhesive compound when working on Cobras (FFR, SPF, Contemporary, Unique, and A&C).
