Arrow Bending...

Roland,

Sorry, I think you misunderstood. I am not looking at bending anything. My reference to the flat surface was simply from an adhesive perspective. How would silicone sealer adhere to a smooth flat metallic surface.

The badge will remain perfectly flat, both the blue anodised plate and the GTT characters. Put in place over the mesh lower grille within the front aero-kit bumper against a deposit of gooey silicone sealer would be my approach. However, while it would adhere to the grill well, due to the shape of the grille parts and key-ing ability, it would not stick well to the GTT badge part, or would it????

I suppose the easiest way to find is to just do it

Cheers,
K.
