I just installed my mazdaspeed sideskirts, the bolts hold the skirts at the end but in the middle it's sagging a little bit because the plastic screws would not go all theway in, and the double sided tape isnt holding it at all. What could I use to permantly keep the skirts in place, I was told gorilla glue would work but I dont think it is strong enough. Any advice? thanks in advance.

gorilla glue is deffinately strong enough, i have been a carpenter for 12 years and have never seen it fail inside or out. living in new england, my work outside has seen alot of abuse and inside i use it on railings on the custom staircases i build ( little kids slidding down and drunks falling into them) never a fail with the glue. as far as it being used for flexable body panells, i don't know. sorry.

what about a 2 part epoxy?????

The gorilla has been holding up well so far. I was told 3M duramix works really well too

first off... are they authentic? if so they shouldnt sag much at all. Mine on with just the bolts doesnt really sag much. that all being said. I bought 3m automotive double sided tape, which holds very well and I didnt even use the body clips on mine.

theyre authentic, the plastics clips wouldnt go all the way in and i didnt clean the area very well thats why the tape didnt stick so well. Its not really sagging, theres just a very small gap
