I can't really understand what you have written here, but Jim Cook Racing suggests using their epoxy as well as rivets. The important step is to let the epoxy cure for approximately 2 weeks before painting. Good Luck. I am going to attempt this on my z in the next few weeks.

Since you usually use either rivets or sheet metal screw to mount the flares while the epoxy is curing, you can either remove them all or leave a couple in to prevent any cracks in the epoxy and body filler you might use to blend away the lines where the flare meets the body. I'd be tempted to leave a couple to be sure....
