The front lip was WAY easier than the side skirts. The front lip just stuck on, I didn't use adhesion promoter or any of that. I think what's making the install hard for people is the fitment, without the pre-fit and slight sanding for the flush fitment it won't be sitting flush against the car, and will be pulling away basically. You should be able to test fit it and have it sit effortlessly against the car and you're mostly just lifting it upwards then sticking it against the car at the right height. I also stayed there and held it onto the car for a good 5 minutes after sticking it on; made sure it held on. It's DEFINITELY on there now.

Update:
I was looking at my side panels tonight, and it turns out that the 3m tape actually separated from the side skirts. It wouldn't even re apply anymore. Now this sucks, as i have to find a way to make this work. The body shop said they can use Seam Sealer, but something tells me it will look like **** and it probably will not stick to the polyurethane.
