Default Flexi Flares on plastic TJ flares

Looking at fitting some flexi flares to the TJ cause I got a set cheap, and need something for engineering.

Looks like I can't tec screw them in as the lip under the plastic flare is too narrow, I was thinking of Liquid nails then maybe riviting them on with some ultra thin rivits.

Open to ideas....

Cheers
Dave

Sikaflex, liquid nails, anything like that as long as it can't be easily removed (How about HD velcro or a backing plate that holds the tec screws in?)

Hi Bogged

Not sure there is room for the backing plate, Sikaflex is a good idea any particular type?

Cheers

If your talking about the rubber flare extensions there is plenty of room on the lip for screws

Yeah I used sikaflex to extend my flares for Nissan Trials one year.. works well, but VERY hard to get off the flare afterwards.
