I used a locktite adhesive that is made for plastic. I really don't expect it to make it though the summer heat but so far so good . I have an alternative with some aluminum tabs if needed.

I think the whole top in silver would look good. I kinda do dig the FJ Cruiser look personally. Either way, nice install and good job.

Nice creative work. Does the insulation cut down on the wind turbulence sound you get at highway speeds?
