UPDATE The tape started to lose its stickiness and it started to sag in a few places after a few days of rain. I guess ill be using more self tapping screws.

Yea the tape is basically a pos I used it on mine and it barely sticks you definitely need to screw it on. I put about 6 screws total so far so good, but time will tell. If I were to do this again I would use some type of silicone instead of the tape.

I decided to make some brackets similar to what our bumper has on the bottom in stock form. That way i will never have to worry about it sagging.

I've gotta hand it to you, this is a pretty good idea. I'm definately going to look into doing this really soon. Cheap, and good looking.

I've had mine for about a month now and I have to admit it looks great, but I regret doing it. I can't get past the fact that isn't functional what so ever. Although I'll leave it on there until it rips apart. I would love to buy one that looks just like it in carbon or some type of fiberglass. You guys know of any that would look like this one?
