personally i wouldnt dick about with drilling holes, i would just bond the whole lot on. Tiger seal and silkaflex are a few names i have heard people using to bond things on with, or nip to your local body shop ask they what they use and see if they will sell you some smileys/happy.gif

what i did to fit the kit was:
Front Arches: i drilled a hole at each end of the arch and used the original slips to clip in place to give it a bit of strength and then bonded the rest on with "Hard As Nails" from b+q..it seems to have done the job
Rear Arches: With the rear arches you need to take your time to get it right mate..firstly pull off the black bump strip off the arch..next i put masking tape over the arch and then held my new VT arch in place..while its in place draw a line round it with a pen onto the masking tape to mark up where it sits..take ur VT arch off and line up again and see if your happy with it..then get an angle grinder or get someone to do it for you and cut away your standard square arch around the line you drew onto the masking tape..then drilled a hole into the arch and clipped my arch into place and also bonded it aswell
Front And Rear Bumpers: Just really a case of unscrewing the few screws and putting the new one in place
Skirts: on the skirts i got there was plastic slips so i drilled a few holes to clip them in place and also bonded them as they didnt seem secure enough..they seem ok now..they didnt go under the door seal on mine
Hope this helps mate and if you have any problems PM me or post on here!
