Use liquid cement. Either testers MM or a plasticwelder type glue.I prefer the Testors in the black diamond shape bottle. Just a drop will do. And if the paint is dry you should nt have a problem marring the finish, if yoyu use it lightly.

Don't worry too much about the shine as long as it's holding. When it's fully cured shoot a couple of coats of dullcoat on it, that should take away the shine.
