I'd say brackets are the only way to go for screws, its much too thin to tap into.

I've heard of some people using a special glue that chemically melts polycarbonate together, basically making it one solid piece, can't remember what its called though.

There used to be one Kilobot event in the US, but then they switched to the 3 lber beetle class.

The only other Kilobots I know of (and compete lots in!) is in Canada.
