Spraying windex wouldn't be the best thing to do because you have to wait and hold it while it dries otherwise your risking the lip moving from its place.
What I did, and some others recommend on the board, is I cut about 2 inches off from the double sided tape on each end of the lip (revealing the sticky part to stick on the bumper) and put it on perfectly that way. After I made sure that the fitment was perfect, I pulled the lip back a little and took the rest of the tape off. Added some pressure to the whole lip with my hand to make sure the tape stuck well and walked back to admire. |
