hahaha yeah that would be very dumb . haha but no lol its just that the tape seems to be very thick between the the spoilers and the car. i shall try the taping method tomorrow and hope itll work out better =) thanks!

It fits perfectly? But there is a gap which is very visable. Can i you clear that up? Maybe some pics. Im very confused and im trying to purchase mine asap.

Sorry for the confusion. Hehe the roof spoiler I got does fit perfectly on the roof. Looks really good IMO. I'm talking about the tape attached on the spoiler. When I installed it it didn't stick as much as I wanted to. That's why I'm gonna try that taping method pyro is talking about to hold it down in place and let the adhesive settle. Better?

GOT IT thanks and yes the tape would have applied the pressure to it during the curing process, If it doesnt work try removing the tape and reinstalling fresh 3M double sided tape and then additional tape to hold it down

yea, i didn't realize you meant the tape was too thick. that means it literally needs to be compressed and i doubt the tape would do that while curing. i'd take it off and add 3M tape, i probably would do it either way cause i trust 3M more
