squishy spoiler

[blasian_man]

i have a question about the spoiler on my 89 se, its starting to come off, what kind of adhesive should i use to keep it on. i don't wanna take it off b/c it would leave the break light exposed by itself so does anyone know how to keep it on?

If it's coming off, more than likely the posts that hold the ends on are rusted through.

You can use some 3M double sided tape to put it back on, but my advice is to remove it all the way, and make sure you don't have major rust on the trunk lid.

ok thanks for the tip, im hoping its not rusted, since the part that is comming off doesn't look rusted, but how long will the double sided tape hold for?

I wouldn't rely solely on double sided tape. They're great for decals and such but a spoiler is pretty heavy. I say take it off and find the problem and if all else fails drill some holes and put a couple of bolts through it. You can camo them so they aren't that noticable and it's a hell of a lot better that stopin' at wal-mart one day and suddenly realizing that you're spoiler is laying on the highway somewhere.
