Default Advice on using 3m Tape.

I bought this:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT

It came with 3m tape. I'm wondering what's the best way to put this on. If I use 3m tape, people could easily rip it off and take it home. Is there anyway I can securely put this on without compromising the looks? I don't want to use zip ties or super glue because 1, it's ugly, 2, it will damage my stock bumper. The piece goes on the middle of the front bumper. Any thoughts?

I would just use the 3M tape and prep the area well with denatured alcohol. If you screw it on and somebody wants it, they are just going to break it when they try to take it off, possibly causing more damage.

Yea, that's the piece. I put it on already, but only taped the top (inside) part...fitment is "okay" but a lil bit of stock bumper showing on the left side of car. Not worth it for 100 bucks, maybe 50...o well

If you don't like the fact its secured like that you can get the center painted flat black if the carbon fiber thing doesn't have to be carbon fiber looking.
