This may happen. It happens to my car. I have had the body shop double it up at portions that do not stick well. I take it your skirts are coming off at the fender area?

Mine started to sag under my drivers door as the tape pulled away. I pulled it back off, cleaned the hell out of the rocker, and put two layers of tape on the sideskirt...no problems yet, but it's only been a couple days.

I got so sick and tired of that tape that the last time I fixed my sideskirts, I used as little tape as possible. I used two screws in the front, two in the back, and two underneath the car, and those skirts don't even budge now. I don't even think the passenger side skirt has any tape from the door to the front fender.

You need to use an automotive degreaser like 3M, not rubbing alcohol. Get a wider double sided tape and apply lots of pressure when you put it on. Other than that you have to screw it in and mold it to your car permanently.

I had the same problem with mine, so I also put 2 screws in the front in the well, and 2 in the back, however I put 3 in the underside and loaded it with 3M on the lip. Looks stiil like a slight sag at times, but then again I am a perfectionist and these are aftermarket parts. Also, note that unless you change your own oil, don't take the car to a oil service center where they have to hoist the car in the air, it will make the skirts pop loose usually. If your not going to do it yourself, go to one of the pull over oil changing stations. JMO....Jamie
