    I just finished building mine. Fun project.. I attached with windshield glue. (super tacky and adds alot of needed strength to the first gens mounting brackets.) And I didnt need to zip tie on while gluing. just a 2x4 with some weights on it. I did have to tape off anywhere you dont want to get the glue.

    Received mine last week. Very happy with it. However I have a 18 and it blocked the sensors for cruse control so I am selling it and going to replace it with another
