Wez Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Hey All, Whats the best way to mount grill to the underside of the bonnet as soon on a few MKIV these days? I am guessing a glue gun would be no good in these areas due to the heat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra joe Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 (edited) I used a silicone glue on mine, make sure you have like a lip to bend and push the mesh in before you start securing. oh and it was fine, no problems with heat either. Ps. That bonnet looks crazy !!! Edited April 28, 2011 by supra joe (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 We actually use UPOL Tiger Seal which is similar to Sikaflex 227 but Sikaflex 260 is supposed to be even stronger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
