What the others said above about suppliers. Something like this from easy. It says composites to metal. www.easycomposites.co.uk/#!/resin-gel-silicone-adhesive/structural-adhesives/vm100-black-methyl-methacrylate-adhesive.html It would depend how you want it to look. A lot of the epoxys you can just push the composite fasteners into and it will grip massively when set. It will ooze through the holes and encapsulate partially. If you're laying up it looks neater putting it in mid lay up. The place I used to work would bond them on without doing this if it wasn't visible when finished. Bond strength is immense and the panel will often give well before the fixing bond. Although if you were loading in bending it's more susceptible to peel but from the pic above it's doesn't look especially highly loaded.

Well, unfortunately the silence was for the inevitable... I've had to abandon the project. However it is for a great reason. Which has meant that we have to move house, and thus the loss of the tiny garage that all the work has taken place in over the last 2 years. My new house doesn't have a garage, but it does have a big shed, this means I can't continue with a major project, but can work on a different kind of project. A rolling project that I can work on outside of the car. That project has been bought already and will feature in a new build thread 😁

The best reason to drop a project - congratulations!
I was going to make a sneaky comment about polished stainless steel, seems I'm too late...
They either seem to be standard or occasional BTTF replicas but ripe with potential, I trust you're going to break the mould?

Picked her up in it, and on the 2nd date told her it was going into storage. Then travelled back to the future.... Obviously.
