Default Question about installing side skirts

Whats up guys i just got my veilside sideskirts painted and im about to put them on, they look like they fit perfect and im going to bolt it on but i heard there is some stuff you can use to mold them on better than just using screw. Does anyone know what this stuff is called and where i can get it?

well, before you do anything you need to pick up some "3M adhesive promoter".

The 3M stuff is the best kept NON secret in the auto industry. Every GOOD shop uses it, but no privateer seems to know it exists. I could stick YOU to the car with it. I used it to adhere some window visors to my Ranger a few yrs back with some simple 2 sided tape. I THOUGHT I was going to remove them before I sold the truck...... yeah right.....
