I PMed Lawrence from Strafe about it, he told me that double sided tape should do the trick.
The FRP material is damn stiff. One part of my side skirts stick out about a half inch, it's not strong enough to hold the side skirt down to the body.
The double sided tape job was half assed, i'm sure that if my dad and I really worked on it, it might stay.

@SkyZ33. That Z looks so sick. Got to love the two toned paint with PPW. I'm going for that look as well.
But I did see that the rear bumper does look a little bit off.
The paint job looks great!
Did they repaint the whole car? or did they just paint match the kit?
I wish I could bring my car to LA
Hah when we finished putting the kit I started taking a couple of pictures.
My dad started setting up his fishing pole for the next day.
You don't need a whole lot to test fit the kit.
Some people would say use a heat gun to help mold the kit better.
But my dad and I used original hardware and zip ties.
Yeah noticed that too.

the bumper fitment is actually pretty good, and just got it recently, used to be a Veilside V3 rear, the fitment that off was the spoiler that been on it for 4 years, never try to fix it.
they just match the color, repaint the whole car is too expensive, I wish...

Update:
Took my car to Maaco on Friday morning.
My quote was 1400 to paint all pieces. Fill in holes where my canards use to be. Fill in emblem. Blend fenders and sides.
Over priced? Probably.
Many of my friends dogged on me about taking my car there.
Oh well. I bit the bullet and went with it.
Got my car back yesterday and almost everything was great.
Thank god.
I'll post pics soon.
My only complaint was that they only covered about the bottom half of my windshield. I have pretty bad over spray on the top half.
You can't tell by look at the outside, but when you're inside it's very noticeable.
It's starting to drive me crazy.
Clay bar anyone?
