Silicon for irregular body panel fit

I've always hated the irregular fit between the front bumper cover and fender. I was watching an RWB vid of those insane 911's they build and it showed them doing this to every connection joint on the entire body.

Nakai is actually using Sikaflex 227black which is a polyurethane adhesive/sealant and not silicone.
