Help - stripped thread

I removed the faceplate for my air cleaner yesterday and when I re-installed it, I stripped the threads for one of the mounting studs (I know, stupid mistake). I'm contemplating one of two options - 1) try the Loctite Form-a-Thread that I read about or 2) bring it into my MOCO dealer for repair.

Any suggestions? I've never used the Form-a thread before and I don't have a clue how much the dealer would charge to fix this.
 
The threads in the top half of the throttle body are stripped. As for the other options you mentioned - I am not familiar with them.

Check out the link I posted in the post above. It even has a video of how to use them. Otherwise let the dealer do the repair if you aren't up to it.
