I'm not keen on the look of screws in the cycle wings - is it possible to bond CF wings to the wingstays reliably?

Sikaflex 221 in black from fluke was what I used. Seems ok so far!

Excellent, anyone have any recommendations for cortina compatible stays that don't crack after a few miles or shall I make my own?
