Hello. Newbie here, so my apologies if this is somehow in the wrong section.
I've attempted to search the forum and web for solutions but could not find a definitive answer.
My pair of FI-BA-SS from Final Audio Design recently had the left earbud housing become detached. No drastic force or anything caused it...seems as if there was an adhesive that just wore down for whatever reason. They don't "snap" back together, so i'm trying to see what would be
here is a picture
Originally i thought the individual pieces of the housing could be detached and reassembled easily based on this picture

but it appears there was some type of glue/adhesive that held it together as opposed to some male/female type connection. There is no degradation or chipping of the actual stainless steel housing.
I don't have a warranty on these so i'm hoping to repair them myself somehow. What adhesive would be best for stainless steel? The mesh screens/filters on these have also come undone...not sure if i can do anything about them but they aren't really my main concern as they don't negate the entire functionality of the earbud. Right now, i obviously can't use these as is.
any help is appreciated. Thank you for your help and patience
