	if you really want to stick them 3m tape is about the best. for a more permenant fix use some stika-flex or tiger seal and hold it in position with some masking tape until it cures stika-flex or tiger seal is what thay use in body shops to fix bodykits, spoilers and the like. one thing i will say is once its cured its a pig to get off edit. the black stuff he uses after drilling the holes in the vid is stika-flex/tigerseal Edited by flash22

	Yea you need to stick it with tiger seal or some thing alike. Tapes wont work as they would peel off easily.
