Sound advice from John and Paul indeed. If you feel like guing and have
access to, try scale model glue as it melts the parts along the contact
area, care not to use too much glue - you may end with a modern art
sculpture.
If you go for the glue, prepare a surface to place the hood while it
dries - I'd suggest some glass for this particular glue. Also, whatever
glue you use, keep the shade away from any lens for a fairly long time -
cianoacrilate fumes may render anything they cling on useless, and any
solvent may harm your lens' coating if you put them together too soon.
You're probably better off with a replacement... but I do glue something
I'd better buy now and then myself. Good luck anyway.

Well, i did it and I can't blame anyone else. I dropped my DS and it
came down on the lens shade for my 20-35 lens. It didn't shatter but
it did knock a piece out of the mount circle. I have the piece. Has
anyone had success gluing these plastic shades and are there any glue
recommendations? BTW, lens is fine......phew
