install with window weld!!!! It's way better than double sided tape. Mine came off using double sided tape, and someone told me to try Window Weld so I did and I'll tell you the only way that thing is gonna come off is if I remove the whole back window!!
just sayin...
You can buy the stuff at Advance or Auto zone. Its the same stuff you use to put a window/windshield in your car

How fast were you going when it came off? How much tape did you have on? How much was the window weld?

I outlined the roof spoiler with double sided tape and had a big strip in the middle. It didn't come off while I was driving it just slid down the window. I'm assuming from heat? The window weld is like 10 or 15 bucks it comes in a tube like caulk would come in. I can guarantee that nobody will be able to get it off once you put it on.
I strongly consider everyone who ever wants to install a roof spoiler on their car use window weld because it is permanent. Mine's been on my S13 now for about 4yrs and my SC for nearly 2yrs. The double sided 3m tape lasted for about 6mths. In case anyone wants to ask, I completely cleaned the window before installation.
