problem installing my aero kit-----HELP----- today was the day i decided to install my aero kit but it was raining out so i couldnt do the sides but i was able to pull my car about half way into the garage so i decided to do the front but of course i ran into a problem. Everything was going good until the 3m tape part. i noticed right away that the front of it seemed a little too far away for 3m tape to be able to hold it but i was hoping it would...of course it didnt and now there is a gap in the front and i dont like the way it looks, i tryed stretching it and putting massive amount of force on it but it still didnt hold...anybody have any suggestions. I took some pics of it below and i must say it looks amazing except for the stupid gap

Rep Power: 787 mine has some gap too. you dont even need the tape, just the bolts and stuff. but a body shop could bend it for you. i say leave it the way it is.

Rep Power: 450 yea i used every single bolt, clip and screw that came with it, now that i look at it the gap isnt that bad...is it possible for it to shrink over time from baking in the sun? it sits in the sun for like 8 hours while i work everyday...tomorrow i install the sides and i hope that goes well

Rep Power: 787 yea actually urethane has that habit. when i first got mine it felt like rubber almost it was twisting all over. now i think it would snap if i tried that again. it gets alot harder and tighter over time. well i've had mine for 2 yrs or more

Rep Power: 450 yea mine is really flexible, i think that might be why it can hold the grip of the tape...hopfully mine will harden and shrink over time......
