silicone sealant is the cheaper alternative, its not over paintable though.
Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

and it doesn't actually bond the panel, so all the strength will come from the rivets (not actually bad if you have enough of the right sort,
but worth knowing). If you do use silicone sealant don't get the kind that smells of vinegar.

There's a Wurth adhesive that is very popular, PU based, but most motor factors will do something similar such as Tiger Seal.

any reputable car parts shop will stock commercial grade panel adhesive.... the kind of stuff that once stuck will never be unstuck!

it will have a few rivets in it just to give it a bit of extra strength, but i dont want it so stuck it will be impossible to remove (im not planning
on having to remove them, but just incase it is needed for some reason)
Would the PU sealant be the best option for this?

Yes, it's tough but not impossible to get the panel off the chassis. Use a cheese wire approach.

PU'd and rivetted the forward ones (there are two), and velcroed the rearward ones. They really hold in place once the tunnel top sits on top
(no glue, no rivets, no rivnuts).

I believe that Sikaflex is about the best available adhesive for this job. According to the maker's website some carmakers 'stick'
car sections together and it might not be unreasonable to go without rivets on the side panels. If used I imagine that it will be difficult to take
off any panels once they have been stuck on!
