I get all of the nuts and bolts drilled and test fitted. I use four across the top and two on each size. You can get aluminum screws and plastic nuts if you want to save weight.

Then I remove it and smear a thin layer of shoe goo across the mounting tab on the body side. Then before it cures, I re-attach the nose using the nuts and screws.

Let sit. It ain't coming apart...
