Bonded Smooth Hood

Ok, so we are going to try the smooth hood on 53 AD by bonding with panel adhesive. Should we just bond the hood center flanges together or bond a strip of metal down the middle in the hollow that the chrome strip used to sit in? Also, should be put in a few tack welds to start? And finally, any recommendations on the best panel adhesive that is available to the general public (i.e. no special BMW adhesives that may not be available to me).

Thanks.

Wade
