Vinyl Spat Application
 
The edges of my new vinyl spats are curling up in some areas and will not stay adhered to the body. Any suggestions on how to keep them adhered to the body without damaging the paint? Maybe the stickiness wore off somewhat from some of the handling during placement.

Are you using a 3M product?

I've got the same ones. This may be a dumb question, but is all the wax removed where the spat will cling to, the area must be clean of all oils, wax, etc....

I've had mine on over a year now with no problems, I did have to trim them a little for a nice fit though.

Great improvement. I always thought wheels with spinners AND lug nuts looked kind of cheesy.

I had the same thought. I will take them off again this weekend and clean the wax from a larger area to see if that helps.
