Call a few body shop supply stores in your area - I know a place in Ottawa that carries 3M products was able to get it for a friend of mine last summer.

you want it to be very thin though, otherwise the foam will put enough of a gap that you can see it up close

I've gotten the thin (but still foam) 3M tape at Wal*Mart. (See the automotive section with the other auto repair stuff, near the paint.)

I got the same one from Xenos Specialist, I had my on for about 3 weeks when the ends started to come up, I removed it... it was a struggle to get it off but it came off.

not w/o removing it and doing it over again. I did mine a couple of times because I wasn't happy how the shop laid it down

Hey say what?

I'm in Toronto, I recently put on my Ducktail Lip Spoiler but I didn't do a good job on it, the end was sticking up. I took more than half an hr to remove it yesterday, I need some new 3M tape now. I think either Home Depot or CanTire should have it. Since you don't need a whole roll of tape, let me know if you want to split it.
