where to get heavy duty automotive 3M tape?

im gonna be getting my aero kit in soon, the sides are used so i want to get some heavy duty automotive 3m tape to help keep it on. Its held in by 4 screws and some clips but i dont know if i will have all the clips because its used. I checked a few websites but some are too thick and some are too thin. I havent been to any stores yet like home depot, loews or an auto zone type of store yet because i dont have enough time until this weekend, i figured i would post this so i dont have to be driving all around town looking for this stuff...so does anyone know where i find some? online or in a store? thanks

any auto store has it. its called molding tape and its grey with red backing. very strong but make sure you clean both surface with alcohol and let the adhesive cure overnight before letting it hold heavy objects.

ok thanks man, but its for my aero kit and it says in the directions just hold the side skirts on for 30 seconds after the tape is applied so it can cure, also says dont wash it for 24 hours

ya do you have sills to stick on first, or is it the sideskirt itself. my 01-03 kit had sills you stick first and then the next day put the kit on.

yea it has a few but not all because i bought it used, it has 2 on each which i guess is all the seller had left and there are 4 spaces open where the clips went but i am going to put 3m tape on in those spots. I guess i will just hold it up for about 30 seconds after i put it on...only thing i can think of

Walmart, home depot, I know both of these stores carry it. It is made by 3M and it comes in a red package I believe with black writing on it. The ones I bought had a pic of them putting a letter on a wall or something.

I used 3M adhesive double sided tape that I bought at Walmart. I used 1 screw in the front and 1 in the back then about 2 underneath. I put the adhesive along in the door sill area and on both the front and back sides. It's on there real good.
