Remove your side skirts completely. Go to wal mart and get some 3M adhesive remover and remove all the old dirty tape. Then use some rubbing alcohol to clean both the side skirt and where it attaches to the car. Next apply some new 3M double sided tape onto the side skirt, attach it to the car and put the screws back in. Sometimes it helps if you you let the tape sit out in the sun to activate the adhesive on the tape. Good luck.

Hello, I had a similar problem with one of my Wings West side skirts. Actually the place that installed them also used 3M tape, screws as well as clear silicone. One of my sides were coming loose so what I did was I went out to buy one of those clamps(vice) and I screwed it to the side of the skirt where it was coming off, than I applied silicone to the hole skirt on the side of the crack. Let it dry for about an hour or 2 and it should be fine.

All you need is the double-sided tape, they sell it at home Depot.
