Need to modify my bra. Suggestions?
 
I have a large cut-out in my bra so you can see the front plate (half of you just clicked-out of this thread).

I want to buy a piece of black vinyl and cover it up since I have no front plate. My question: How do I attach the new vinyl to the old? I can't sew it (no sewing machine) so I am thinking glue. What glue works on vinyl? Any other suggestions?

Check out
 
Gorilla Glue or go with Super Glue...
Should work

Automotive upholstery shop. They'll have the vinyl to match as well. I went the other way and had a shop enlarge the license plate area to accommodate the front oil cooler opening in my rs front bumper.

Maybe you could glue strips of velcro on the vinyl and the other on your piece .

What Paul said, except use a product called "Shoe Goo". Great stuff.

I like that idea! I think they even sell Velco with 3M Adhesive on the back. That stuff sticks like crazy!

Great idea!

If you want it to be permanent, go the auto upholstery shop route. You could even have them put it in with snaps if you want to remove it later. I fear that Velcro or glue might not hold up well after a few hours of high speed driving. There's a place in Westlake (I think) called Dan Miller Auto Upholstery. He used to be very good.

Good luck!
