Just finishing up RV-12 wheel pants. I notice the nose gear leg fairing has a nice flange along the trailing edge, but is held closed with piano hinge on the inside, with a hard-to-reach hinge pin securing them together. It's tempting just to close it with 3-4 tiny nut & bolt set-ups through the trailing edge flange. Any thoughts?

Thanks,
Jim
