Damn man, I just tried this and failed miserably. lol

No primer, no rubbing alcohol, too much drinking alcohol, blasted. Will try again after I purchase the primer and rubbing alcohol. I couldn't get it to stick, and I couldnt get it around the biggest edge on the dip in the front.

I'm sending mine to a guy in WA, said he would do it for 50 bucks, and the fog light covers for 35.... Will let you guys know how it goes. I'm also thinking about doing the front brake ducts.... overkill? Too much?

Thanks to everyone for the positive feedback. I'm glad everyone likes my idea and it's catching on.

The primer seems to be a must. I also had two sets of hands the second time and that really helped.
It been over two months since I fixed it and with the heat and sun we have experienced in Boston during that time I have had no issue with it lifting.

Streetx, you are local and if you want to get yours to me I don't mind giving it a try for you.
