I used the bathroom stuff. It says 100% waterproof, resists mold, mildew, paint, etc.....
Bought it at ACE in a tube for a caulk gun.

I would use a GE Silicone 2 100% silicone for windows and doors or you can use the kitchen and bath in the same series. The advantage to the kitchen and bath caulking is that it's mildew resistant. Both have lifetime warranty also. Dont use any thing that is latex, acrylic, or a combonation of both, they just don't hold up to temperature changes like silicone does because they dry hard and will crack with any temperature changes.
I completely f**ked up the DIY clear corners. I have a 4 dr 02 and it was impossible to open the headlight up (and I could not find the 5 black clips). Then I couldnt get the f*cking body aligned right (to the point where the two screws in the fender well can screw in) and then I forgot to put in 1 screw, yes 1 screw and I was going about 90 and the right side of the underbody, which I guess was hanging down a little bit, pushed into the ground. So now I have no place to put the screw because the plastic is shaved off. Does anyone have any suggestions? I am going to have to take my car into the dealer and it is probably going to cost a shitload because it looks like this part of the underbody is connected to the whole car body. I am f#$ked. Any suggestions?
