Side Scoops - American Muscle Fitment

I'm considering the AM pre-painted side scoops very highly. But I read some reviews around the web that said they had some issues with fitment, and the tape not adhearing well.

Anyone put these on yourself that can comment on the fit.

I just hate it when a taped part doesn't sit just right...nothing worse than having a corner not sitting down.

They're just painted Xenons, aren't they?

Most of the reviews on AM complain about old 3M tape. You could just purchase new tape to install.

+1, for a tape issue just buy a roll from autzone, i think it's like $5. i would never use tape that "came with" the item, just buy new tape. it is cheap and easy to do

Probably not as big of a PITA as having your parts blow off going down the highway or falling off in a parking lot. Can't imagine how I'd know that...
