    I already knew to pull off the adhesive cover strips when the piece was positioned. However, it never crossed my mind to tape the piece to the car after positioning it. It’s simple things like that that can have a major impact on installation. It made installation east peasy for me last night. Thumbs up! Thanks for the no-nonsense, get-right-to-it video.

    Great content! I just installed the Ikon Motorsports front lip following your tutorial today. Btw, ETS muffled axleback, highly recommended. And just my other 2 cents, the subaru OEM window visor looks awesome.

    You can also use a heat gun first to make it adhere better

    What kind of tape did you use and what was it’s thickness?

    • @nthomas87
      @nthomas87 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      almightyaleks if you’re talking about the blue tape, it’s just painter’s tape to hold everything steadily in place. I used electrical tape just as easily. However, if you’re talking about the adhesive on the back of the vortex generator, it’s comes already applied. You just remove the red strips to apply the piece to the car.
