Loose Side Skirts

[herbgti]

Just got the standard GTI ones on, but they a bit loose when i hit 60mph they start rattling and is pissing me off now!!!

Going to take them off and restick them on whilst the weathers good!

Can any one recommend what i should use to do the job... something that is going to last and not start to come loose, i been told not to use no-nails!

Thanks in advanced!

personally id just screw them in or the like but, your choice - not sure about no nails though. don't most people use that 3M self adhesive?

Yeh they already have screws in them (only a few!) But doesn’t stop the rattling!
That 3m self-adhesive sounds a good idea, will give it a go!

Thanks Shift

On the GTi's i thought they where stuck down with an adhesive tape and screwed in.

Tigerseal, or any Polyurathane bonding adhesive is what you need to use mate

i stuck my skirts on with clear silicone and screwed the ends, haven`t had a problem in nearly 2 yrs

Evo-Stick `serious stuff ` from B&Q £5.99......well strong!

Checked in BnQ today, but was still unsure didnt have the 3M self adhesive, had probs with computer so didnt realise had so many replies... much appreciated for all your help and info!

Is tigerseal only available here http://www.bodyshopwarehouse.co.uk/default.asp?go=1&shop=&dep=&cat=&prodid=3998
