JamieP Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I siliconed mine to the underside of the car aswell and drilled a couple of holes in the underside to stop it trapping water. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daston Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 What silicon did you use Jamie? My border one has brackets that go to the 2 bolts on the bottom of the fuel tank however I dont really feel happy that they will hold it in place at say 150+ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hodge Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 I used Sikoflex when fitting my kit, it holds really well and once its on it aint coming off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jihwaan Posted December 8, 2009 Share Posted December 8, 2009 I had to cut mine and reshape it in like 4 or 5 places- it was absolute crap fitment. Even then I wasnt happy with it, I have it sitting in my garage now as I sold the car i had it on and I am going to spend a heap more time on it beforer I fit it to my new supra...
