Has anyone taped on a hoodscoop that has not flown off later on?

i would not tape on the hood scoop...period.

taping it on is just LOL in my book. do it properly by drilling the holes and using the bolts/nuts its supposed to have.

Yeah mine to.. but i have used the Xenon or whatever hoodscoop from AM. That tape is like really really sticky. i put the hoodscoop on and within 5 mins i couldnt hardly pull it off was insane. just make sure you do it on a hot day and allow the tape to fully bond.

just think of what it would cost to replace the windshield IF it fly's off.
I'd rather bolt it on..
