Double Sided Tape Isn't Cutting It!!
 
So I just fit my MS replica side skirts and rear aero's a few days ago and used double sided tape and bolts. But the tape is like wearing off already, so the parts are sticking out...which looks like shit. What could I use that would make this stuff stick?!

You did clean the surface properly before installing, correct? I dont think I've heard of this before. If that's not working for some reason, you might want to find a stronger brand or something.

Yeah neither have I. When I installed mine, I first used the tape, but found it to be worthless. I just used bolts and nut to hold them on and have had no problems whatsoever.

Yeah I cleaned the surface. Ah, I might need to a better brand or something then. Crap

When you clean the surface, try rubbing alcohol. You dont want to use something that has wax in it (ie: quick detailer)

3M makes a great double sided automotive tape.
