TIME OUT.
dont try spraying some "sticky" stuff...

either

a. Spray the sticky stuff, make a freakin mess, then go to options b, c or d.

b. use the dowel ( probably will look right nice next to the diamond plate and duct tape).

c. get a hard hat and live with a droopy hood.

d. Fix it correctly, the first time and adjust the springs. then you are done with it.
