G60 arches are glued (Sikafelx) in place, not rivited. You just need clamps to hold the arch while the glue goes off.

... it's turned into a fashion show for poofters.

G60 arches can be riveted along the bottom and bonded along the top.

you need to cut the excess plastic off. You will see what i mean when you offer them up to the wing
