Need Help On What Glue I Need For Body Kit Installation....HELP PLZ!!!

K, heres wats up: right now I have the wings west side skirts and door caps. At this moment the only thing that would be holding them on to the car will be 3M Tape (which I know is good, but I need more!), my question is: Does anyone know what kind of glue/apoxy I would use to help keep the skirts and panel on my car? Also, where could I purchase this at? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance. :frog:

You don't glue a body kit on dude. A shop has to install your skirts.... They have to be molded to your doors, you can't just glue them on... Well you could but it will look like crap.

they dont have to mold them on...most dont...its a pain in the ass and is always cracking if its on a daily driver..especially if he's got a urethane ww kit...you can mold urethane...way too flexible..

Yeah, you don't need extra glue, as long as whoever puts the kit on follows the instructions by cleaning the area properly and using the right adhesive promoter. Oh, and you're wrong about it just being held on by tape. The ends of the side-skirts should be bolted onto the car inside the wheel-wells, and if you look, there's a big tab onl the bottom edge of the side-skirts that will be bolted underneath the car.
