Attaching Eyelids And Boot Lip

[itsme]

Hi All,

Trying to find a way to attach eyelids and bootlip to an r34 sedan. I've done searches and people are recommending sikaflex or 3M heavy duty thin double-sided tape.

I've been to a few hardware stores and had no luck finding the tape and the dudes at bunnings tell me that sikaflex is pretty much permanent.

Anywhere around Perth I can find something that will stick these two down nice and firm without being too permanent (ie: don't want to drill holes etc or have them permanently glued)

I've tried Bunnings in Innaloo and Balcatta with no luck - any tips appreciated fellas.

regards,

Steve

hey this stuff should work used it for the skirts on my car haven't had a problem.

it is a bit pricy but works well. but make sure you really push it on and don't get any bubbles in the tape.

Cheers bud will definitely give it a go, the eyelids I'm not overly worried about but I don't want anybody ripping off the spoiler and running away =(

I was going to use Sikaflex but I'm not sure which one to get (there are about 10 variations). And I also don't know if they will cause any permanent damage to the paintjob or plastic eyelids.. I believe fishing line gets the part off but I'm not sure about the residue etc..

yeah this shouldn't mark the paint and you can get rid of the sticky shit easy with some alcohol (not drinking alcohol).

with the lip make sure you get lots of contact area, i think this stuff holds like 17kg per metre at 1cm wide so is pretty strong.

hope it works for ya.
