My dad's always had a decorative horse on his Cadillac's and just bought a Porsche Cayenne. Is there some extremely strong double sided tape or High powered magnet system available. I don't want it to get stolen or to fly off on the highway? Drilling holes in the hood of a Porsche would really hurt the value

Again....this is for my Dad....it's HIS tradition....I'm trying to find a solution that doesn't involve drilling holes in the hood! I don't like it either!

3M makes a good molding tape, but comeon, don't do that to a Porsche.

You can try molding it to the Porsche crest itself. That way you are only damaging the crest and not the hood itself. You can always buy another crest for the Cayenne.
To do this properly you would probably want to body paint the crest so it looks seemless. I would still be concerned that depending on what sort of drag this new hood ornament makes, that it might pop off and come back at the windshield.

If you remove the Porsche crest there should already be two holes. The crest itself is detached from underneath. At least that is the way it is on my 911. As for putting a hood ornament on is a bad idea altogether. It just wouldn't look right on a Porsche.

Why in gods name would you want to put a hood ornament on a porsche?!?!? forget the holes, having a hood ornament on a porsche in any way would decrease the value. that's just a terrible idea

To be honest, I sounds like you've anwsered your own question. Those are the only ways that i know. Just drill the holes! If you want to ornament, it cannot hurt the value to much. It is probable the same as damage from the minor rocks dings on the highway. I hope this help-Matt

Check you local auto parts store or Wal-Mart for "Automotive Goop". It's a thick silicone glue. I've used it to repair the side molding on my trans am and it works really well. This may work for you but keep in mind, if someone wants to steal it, they will, even if it were bolted down. Hope this helps.

Have you thought about earthquake wax. I once put it on my kid's pantseat, and he was immobilized for 3 days. But, seriously, folks, you might try earthquake wax.
