What's better to use for plastic parts like side skirts? I have autobody double sided tape & sikaflex 291.

Never had a problem using 3M automotive tape with plastic or perspex accessories on cars.

Sikaflex will guarantee permanent adhesion where 3M tape will allow easy removal if needed.
Your choice. Last time I had to remove a side skirt that had sikaflex the paint of the door came with it resulting in one stuffed skirt....lol |

Do not sikaflex. Nearly impossible to remove and will cause paint damage in the process.

Thanks guys, I was thinking that if you had to replace them it would be a nightmare to remove with the sikaflex.
The clips, screws & tape should be more than enough to fix them. |
