i dont wanna ask if the end of the story ends up with an eyelid not on the car but on the side of the highway. thats what scares me is them falling off.

good, think 3M, double sided tape does not come off when applied properly. Lots of kits use it to secure body panels that weigh and produce more drag then eyelids. Granted the kits also are screwed in places, but tape is used as well.
