Hi, I have just purchased a set of Cosmetic roof rails from e-bay & I was wondering what type of double-sided tape i would need to make sure they 'stick on forever' ...if this is possible!

Has any other member purchased a set of these & how good are they @ staying on in the car wash ... ! !

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

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