Sill is loose on driver side

Ok, now that the teeny pieces of adhesive have apparently worn off on the custom sills we group purchased, anyone know what to use to hold it down? I got out of my car today and it sprang up from the wind!

Its been crazy windy today around here.

If mine ever comes loose i was gonna use some epoxy to glue it down with. Should work pretty well.

Just use the wider 3M tape. Try an automotive supply house for the real deal stuff.

3M is good stuff ,have them give you a few packets of adhesion promoter t give the 2 sided tape some serious sticking power .

don't you double sided tape, it still comes off. .. I used the 3M spray adhesive, since i had some left from building by box. That sill is on there forever. haha

Unfortunately...we have cold weather here...don't think that will cut it by itself.

Epoxy. Guaranteed never to come off, and will definitely outlive you for sure.
