Easy as using a bit of garden wire through the grill.

just be careful about the ribbon scratching the paintwork, my mate did this on his Tussie and where the rbbon moved slightly in the wind it left fine scratch marks the length of the bonnet yikes

Agreed! I did this last year on my Chim and had the same issue. Very annoying and a lot of effort to polish out.

I would like to add to the above quotes that you should buy the softest ribbon you can, they vary a lot and I found out the hard way on a Bentley. I fitted the top of the ribbons on my Tuscan underneath the rubber strip while the roof was off, it gave me the nice V shape, if you have problems at the front you could always create a bow to hide the wire etc.
