got my street scene skirts in and painted and installed but the 3m tape is not holding up at all, POS!! i went auto part store looking and couldnt really find anything that would work better than the actual tape, anyone have any suggestions?

Did you clean the surface well? My Razzi side skirts were held on by silicone, you can try that but good luck getting the silicone off if you ever remove them. You will have to take an eraser wheel to them but the silicone is stout.

Adhesion premotor is an absolute must after you remove all the was from the area!

yeah the spots were nice and clean and i used some promotor that came with the install kit. but its like the skirts dont fit well. i ended up using a new roll of 3m tape, i sanded down the areas were the tape will be held.

my saleen sideskirts were coming off where they used adhesive stuff and i was upset, so i went and bought gorilla super glue..... i tell u now, if you want ur sideskirts to stay on permanently, USE IT! Awesome stuff. i put a couple of dabs, held it for 30 seconds, and it stayed rock hard and i didnt have to apply pressure for more than 30 secs unlike other stuff where u have to have it held down for hours. 6 months later, not one bit has come off. It is FIRM against the body of the car.

I never thought of using something like that....

my side skirts are street scene too...held on by 3M tape.

lol Gorilla glue is good stuff for sure. I'd be careful how much you use though because it expands while it dries. I'd use it in very small dots if you decide to use it.

well ill have to try the gorilla glue guys, came out this morning, the door cap was laying on the ground and the fender part of the skirt is hanging. the rear is fine though, im about to take these pieces of **** and throw them in the lake lol

Lol! When all else fails, glue it!!!!

get the gorilla glue SUPER GLUE. Not the regular one. The super glue barely expands and dries in seconds, but the regular does not and u have to apply pressure for a while and and risks of expanding. Gorilla superglue will not expand.
