Did you use the 3M on the front?

i had a tough time with it..the lip is actually 1/2-3/4 " off in design so when the tabs underneath were secured the bumper pulled down and the 3M kept peeling off.

I talked to Andreas at Vorsteiner and they were currently designing the rear bonnet- 3M applied with screws.

I removed the 3M and will put a black bead of windshield cauking - mentioned somewhere by a poster in a previous thread.
