clark17357 Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 With all the pain that some of you have gone through with the stripes, I amost hesitate to ask this question because it is so minor. The stripe that goes across the trunk lid wraps into the trunk a bit (not enough for my way of thinking). It is starting to come unglued just a bit (nothing you can see on the outside). What have the rest of you used to glue back such minor items? Thanks in advance. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remove hood liner, unbolt hood scoop and lift scoop off hood. Using citrus based cleaner, pull all stripes off car and remove all adhesive residue from paint. Then wait 5-6 months for dealer ( mine) to stop procrasturbating and get new stripes put on. just my 2 cents worth of r & r this am Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SGT2666 Posted October 21, 2007 Report Share Posted October 21, 2007 if its on the backside trim it with a sharp razor knife back to where it has good adhesion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clark17357 Posted October 28, 2007 Author Report Share Posted October 28, 2007 Okay, in an answer to my own question, which started this topic, I resolved my "lifting tape" issue without resort to any violence directed at my dealer or anyone else. I took a toothpick, put a dab of clear silicone sealer on it, spread it under the tape where it was lifting, applied pressure for a while and, presto, it held fast. Mine was just a small piece but, if it happens to you, give this a shot. Jim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
