3m tape for ACS roof spoiler?

wasup1357 · 09-30-2009, 12:38 AM

Hi just got a roof spoiler and wondering which 3m tape to use (where to buy them too) to use to put them on, should the tape cover teh whole area? thanks in advance (I bought the glue but decided not to use it becuse it would take too much work to take it off later on)

you'll want the double sided tape that looks like black foam and has a red backing. I used two half inch strips across the roof spoiler and it's been stuck on since April 2008!

Is the 3M double sided tape strong enough to keep it in place? The spoiler usually receives a lot of air down force. I am weary of seeing it flying in my rear mirror while driving lol

down force should help hold it in place. look at the roof racks, at speeds like 50 MPH and higher, the down force hold things in place if it directs the air properly. i think u can do it yourself, it's not rocket science. GL
