Lol, alrighty, well i think partially cause of the shitty climate i live in, with the constant heating and freezing of my rear bumper the left side of it has seperated from the body. After taking a look and reading the "common problems" thread on this forum, ive relized that its just a 2 sided tape that holds my bumper on.... So far its not damaged and the first few days i could just push it back on the tape and it would hold, so my question is, is there a specific name of the tape or a brand/other alternative i should look for, it'll save me some explaining when i go to purchase some?
and is it say a walmart style product or will i have to specifically go to a dealership/garage to get some (cause id like to do it myself, real easy job)

Make sure you clean the surfaces really well and some isoprobic (sp) alcohol will make it stick really well.

yea i picked up some and was just going to quick fix the bumper to a warmer day came around but was too dirty, and the other side is starting to hang, so i think im popping the back skirt off and cleaning the whole damn thing and re attaching it all

yea actually at the moment both sides are hanging and im actually popping the whole thing off and re doing it....i wash my car alot and between that and running the car for 4-5 hours, im pretty sure it gets hot back there, so i dont mind, quick fix, i may also look at the possilbity of bolting it on or something at the bottom, but we'll see what kind of damage that could do before i do it haha
