I bought a full kit about a year ago and now the weather is getting better I plan to do all the hard work of prepping and fitting before I get the respray done.

Will sikaflex be strong enough to hold down the N1 bonnet and boot lip? I seriously don't want to drill holes in my bonnet or boot to attach them. Just wondering if this is the way to go or if anyone else can recommend another option.

I tried searching but couldn't find the info I wanted.

Cheers!

So the bonnet lip doesn't quite sit/ fit into place, it need to be bent and pressed into place and held down frim... I don't want to screw it into place. I'm thinking a few vice grips holding it into place.

Any other suggestions?

If anyone in the future is curious, a shit load of sikaflex and the material duck-tape shit to hold it into place. The boot lip went on no worries. The bonnet lip one was a bit more frustrating. I tried using vice grips with masonite under the grips to protect the plastic lip. But that was a fail. Vice grips are too heavy and plus with the sikaflex it kept slipping off the bonnet. I used plastic spring loaded style vice grips and with help from another pair of hands taped the shit out of it to hold it in place.
