linconhawk Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Had a search but not much detailed info came up.... Is there a correct / good way of attaching oem spats ? I have some fitted, but they are coming away... I was going to take them off and re-fit them. I am aware there are several screws, but how do you get them to fit flat against the bumper... Do you use tiger seal or something, if so, how would you hold / keep pressed into place untill set ? Any help would be appreciated....

jim Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 I used some wood with rags wrapped around the ends, pushed up against the spats and then wedged against some wheels on the floor. Maybe better ways of doing it but they're still firm four years on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin-mkiv Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Doublesided foam tape that you get from your local paint suppliers is the stuff to use. If all surfaces are cleaned properly before fitting then nothing will remove it, unless you vehemently need it off, then it comes apart at the foam section and you simply use glue softener to remove the sticky remains. Most cars body mouldings are secured in the very same way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
