Seat Leon body kit

I have a mark 1 seat leon tdi 110 SE and have recently bought a bodykit for it... i have had it sprayed and everything. but i am having problems putting the side skirts and the back bumper spoiler as it supposedly cant be screwed in. I was told it needs to be put on using adhesive or something if so where can i get it from and is that really the case with bodykits?

Anyone ever had a body kit put on theres and how??

or if anyone can guide me as to where i can get it done?

I live in North London by the way?

Any help will be much appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

first you can start with telling wich bodykit this is about ?

i have had 3 different bodykits on my Leon. and its not a problem to fit it on, if there aint no holes to put the screw in, then you must build those holes for yourself thats for the backbumper anyway..

for the sideskirts , i always using glue , like the one that glasscompanies using to mount windows in cars. for the most its 2 component glue, i think its the best , but others using a glue called "PL400" and can be find at most shops , that having Glue,Paint,spraycans etc. etc.

i hope this will solve some at your problems

thanks for your reply i have sorted out the side skirts they are fine... its just the back bumper ok my car is black now the bumper has been sprayed black already, do i just get black screws and screw them in?? is there sumway i can cover the screws after i have screwed them into the bumper?
its the same bumper as the one in this picture below..

i see , this is the Carcept rear skirt , its not an complete backbumper , only the lower part (skirt) , i have had this one on my car to..

i glued my backskirt from Carcept , when i mounted it !

first , i used a saw to saw off a part of my original backbumper , the lower black part if you know what i meen , but i leaved a little bit of the black, around 4-5 cm , then you have to lay glue on the back skirt , and keep it pressing to the rearbumper , so you dont have to use skrews at all..

i hope my english is so good that you can understand what i´m saying.. if not . send me an PM so should i see if i can explain with pictures instead!!
