First Mini Disaster

I attempted to glue the tadpole trim onto the back-end finishing strip today and it was an unmitigated disaster! 

I cut the strip into shape using a craft knife:

But gluing it to the aluminium was a nightmare.  I used the same bonding agent as I used to bond panels to the chassis, but it went everywhere and refused to hold the rubber trim in the correct position.  I thought that riveting to the car would make things better, but that's when things actually got about 1,000,000 times worse.  I will make an assessment tomorrow and form a plan...
