I installed mine today with Liquid Nails adhesive. Worked out well as far as I can tell. Looks the whatever you use, it needs to be fairly thick to get in the space between the car and the CF. I used spring loaded clamps to hold them in place while the glue set. I'll try and post up some pictures tomorrow morning.

Those look really nice. I dont see no scratches. My original set had lots of scratches. My new set with my CF lip should come next week.
So how long didyou let them sit clamped for?

I only needed to clamp them for like 20 minutes. The glue I used (Liquid Nails) was really thick, and even thicker due to the fact that it was like 30 deg. outside when I did it. The passenger side rear most pillar was a bit harder to mount, it was somewhat twisted, so the bottom peeled up a bit, so I'm going to have to get some glue under there and clamp it again.

Like I said a few posts up, I did polish them, so that got out some if not most of the small scratches. If anything, the inlined picture makes them look more perfect than they really are. I think if I went at them with an orbital buffer and some polishing compound, they'd be nearly perfect.

What's the price on these? Is the deal still for $60 shipped? Is there a combo deal with the front lip?
