Wow....it's been a long time, but I used to work in a shop that customized vans. I've covered just about every kind of panel there is with vinyl or fabric. We used industrial glues that looked like sticky horse snot from an animal with a sinus infection. Heavy duty stuff from big drums that we'd spray with paint sprayers adapted with bigger nozzles. Very occasionally, we'd used 3M spay cans for spot work at a dealership. And hog rings. Thousands and thousands of hog rings (don't use those for your project).

I could probably explain how to make a nice neat corner using vinyl if you get stuck at such a spot. FWIW.

Good luck.
