for those with m-force m3 sides

for those with the problem of the front driver side not clicking into place what have you done to help it stay in. I think as time is passing its sticking out more and more and now i will have to come up with some solution to keep the skirt in place. just need some ideas what some have done if anything

I was worried mine would start doing that, it's not the tightest fit.

I was thinking about using some type of rubber cement or glue gun.

I used betalink in the front....its on for good until they either get damaged and I have to change them or else I find something that I like to replace them with...But right now I love the way the skirts look and dont plan on changing them for a long time...I used some betalink glue and held it in place with a bat against a pvc piping to the wall for little give to wedge the bat into place onto the spot that was bulging a little...No longer any bulge and it hasn't even popped out at all! Did it to both sides and I am happy with it...Love the M-Force skirts!
BTW I also filled in the hole in the front with some black betalink. I didn't like the little hole that was exposed and it annoyed me as hell, so quick fix on both sides and it looks OEM as hell (Look at pic 2)

thats a good idea but is there something a little less permanent, like betalink jr..

m-force skirts do rock tho!

my shop used glue to keep it in place - so far so good

Getting my sides glued today as well as shaved down on the inside for a flush fitment. Right now, the sides dont fit properly in front and have some bulges. -_-

I have to kick my front driver side every now and then to keep it back in place. Its kinda embarassing...I was thinking trying the 3M double sided tape.
