Default Steel Kick Plates - Door

My steel kick plates on both steps of my car are starting to come up on the edges. Is there an easy fix to keep these "glued" down to the panel?

They are aluminum.

Your post asks for an easy way to glue them.

I reccomend using glue.

Fantastic first post btw.

Tear them off.

Clean/strip the glue of both the underside of the aluminum panels and the plastic.

Buy and apply some thin 3M double-sided adhesive tape.

Tada.

When glue does not work... stronger glue is usually an option.
