WW rear came off

Ok guys so Im driving in my car today going to Texas Showdown. So I stop at a friends house to pick him up and as I am going up his drive way I here something hit and scrape. I look and see my WW rear on the ground. WTF. Damn so I had to go up there without the front. I think I am just gonna have to mold the back. Damn 3m tape didnt hold. What can I do to hold it up. I think I am gonna mold it in about 2-3 weeks. What should I use or what.

Importracer will become famous soon enough

just use 3m tape again but make sure the surface is super clean... use some denatured alcohol to clean it.... trust me it will work.

Yeah. I dont know how the hell it came off. I put it back on with different screws. I had first used the screws it came with. Those were too damn short so I got some different ones. Hopefully it should hold.

My WW rear never came off. Like Importracer said, clean the area with denatured alcohol and it will hold very well!

I took my WW rear off.....took a bit of effort and some of the black tape is still on the bumper. That 3M double sided tape is pretty heavy duty

WW (wings west) and rear is the body part they are talking about.

Rear valance or rear bumper , I'm guessing rear valance
