Currently trying to make some brackets to mount bumpers and will need to do the same when I come to fit arches. I'm having an issue with getting the tiger seal to work well. I know people use it to bond carbon roof panels on.

Anyone want to share some light on how to bond brackets to the car

Use gorilla glue, cheap and strong

Cheers Ben, I'm going to give sticking two pieces together another go and then if not I will get some sikaflex. I think it might be possibly the fact that the garage is a bit cool or I'm just impatient and need to really leave it for a few days. It took a while for some of the seam sealer to go hard properly cause the garage was cold. Always appreciate your input Ben

sikaflex 252 ive used to bond fibreglass to metal with no problems.

Drill a couple of holes in the bit you want to bond so the tiger seal can ouse through the holes, sticks like nobodys business.
