CA glue will stick so much that it won't come off if you pulled it. You can find it at any hobby store and at hardware stores.

adamn i already tried gorilla glue before. it sticks good with wood on wood but not to well on plastic. i need pretty much a permanent stick.

oh yeah we will. this door pod is going to be insane.

the mdf ring i am gonna stick is for the woofer though. i just have it mounted on my door panel and it resonates. so that is why i am gonna put a ring first.

If you want it to be permanent. Get some of that plastic filler I told you about. Sand the area down, ca glue the ring, and then apply the plastic filler around the area, and you can sand it down so that the mdf ring looks like its a part of the door.

Go to homedepot and in the adhesive section get a flexible epoxy called Anchor tight, this stuff is blue and is the strongest stuff I have ever used plus it is slightly flexible, won't crack also may dampen. I used this stuff on boat hulls when I was racing large R/C boats.. Polo..
