pick some up and we can try lol. what id suggest is we first put on the lip with regular 3m adhesive already apllied, find the gaps, and then decide whether or not to use silicone.

Sounds good. I'm pretty sure we will end up using the silicon though cause quite a few forum guys have had these fall off on them before and some are on their 3rd ones.

Use screws and 3m moulding tape. Clean both surfaces with degreaser fooled by water rinse. Dry wipe down with alcohol. Apply tape to car surface and remove 3 to 4 inches of the tape cover. Insert and position while tape cover is expose. Do not press until in position. Press and remove tape backing. Attach screws. Use drill and self tapping screws. Press all into place. Do not was or wet area for 24 hours. Have fun!!!
