I'll be bonding my new skirts with tiger seal too. Can anyone give me any advice on how to keep the side skirt in place for 8 hours when the tiger seal is bonding? What could i use to do this?
Also i plan to put a few selftapers in each arch also when the glue is dry.

i put silicone one each screw i put in to protect from rust, the clips seem to hold it well

the clips are shit though.
i'd do both.

the sealant will also probably cover the holes that you've drilled, so you shouldn't have rust probs.
dab a bit of red oxide over the holes to be sure :thumbs:

22p each for the proper clips mate, worth it in the long run, easy to fit. i bought 18 of the @22p each = approx £4 . probably cheaper than sealant

tiger seal is the stuff. Just as good as ANY fixing. You can get it from any motor factors
