I secured my section with thumbs screws. It takes 30 seconds tops to unbolt the rear section.

Sorry I should have specified, but I meant a pic from the inside of the nut and bolt that hold the 2nd section on. But the CF looks good on white

So your rear section has nut inserts in it molded in it?

the metal brackets which are inside the rear section had threaded holes. Since they were aluminum they eventually stripped out.

I then JB welded nuts on the inside of new brackets which did not have threaded holes. This allows me to use a thumb screw and hold the rear section tight, but easily remove it if needed. I dont need any tools to remove the rear section.
