R34 Eyelids

[PREISS]

After taking my eyelid things of for regency Ive decided to put them back on. I think they look 'tough' and help the cars stance.

What are the BEST produts for sticking them back on >? I used some medium quality product before and wasnt totally happy.

What brand ? what cost? and where ?

thanks

3M double sided tape... sticks well (nearly took off my fingers trying to get it off), doesn't leave too much crap on your glass.

Is it thin, though ?

I dont want to eyelids sitting up to high if you know what I mean

cheers

It's not wafer thin, but it's not as thick as you're thinking. The stuff isn't the fat white double sided tape, it's like a thin black double sided tape sorta like the type to stick electrical components together. Similar to emblem adhesive.

Nice. and its black. so if theres any overlay it should look ok.

Ill have a look at bunnings tomorrow for it.

cheers mate.

the 3M red tape holds like unreal , and not as thick as the others, same stuff they use for trim from the factory. but can be a bit of a bastard to get off without using wax and grease remover if you get pulled up for defect central ?

nothing will hold the lids unless you clean the surface good. and let it dry before applying the tape.

Bunnings doesnt sell the tape neither does most auto shops , check rare spares or a paint shop for cars ? I use it often and cant find it unlesss I go to auto paint shop.
