So I've looked at like 6 different stores around here and there are no where to be had...half of them look at me like I made it up....ARGHH!!! I need some to put on the underside of my cobra spoiler so water doesn't get under it...for some weird reason the spoiler isn't sitting as flush on the trunklid as it should be. There was some thin foam tape from the factory on it but the painter who repainted the wing sprayed over it and it just got all hard and thin...

I'm also look for nylon hole plugs to cover up my 2 front GT spoiler holes....this is even harder to find...


Thanks,
Brandon

It's also called "foam mounting tape" or "mounting tape"

Thanks guys

Home Depot FTW....they had exactly what I needed just laying around as if it was a super common item

They just had white plugs though so I have to paint them black...how do you get automtive paint to adhere well on a small piece of nylon?

why not just buy double sided mounting tape and not take the other side off...

I had thought about that already but I didn't want to do that lol I donno why I just didn't....maybe cause the plastic stripping covering one side of the adhesive isn't so water proof
