    I've previously used silicone on a small SRI lip spoiler, and tigerseal on the VXR boot lid spoiler. Both worked well; but I'd use the tigerseal again for peace of mind knowing that once it's stuck down, it will not budge!

    Yup, as others have said Sikaflex or Tigerseal is the stuff to use.

    I fitted one to mine this week, cleaned out the channels where the original sikaflex and put a bead in each and used 9mm double sided tape around the edges as per original, solid as a rock!
