Re: wings west lip kit
well the obvious. cleaned it real well and everything? and put pressure for awhile so it sticks. but other than that. if it was just poorly made then its not going to really stick. just my 2 cents.

OK
You MUST use the super heavy duty tape from HD. (Its 3M) A lot depends on the screw location of the bottom, front and rear mounts. ( my passenger side is fine but the drivers side keeps comming loose,)

Re: wings west lip kit
the gap isnt because of the double stick tape is it? just my opinion, but i dont think that a heat gun is going to help. you could possibly try re-installing them.
