did it come with little alcohol wipes to clean the surface first? gotta make sure all the road oil and dirt or dust is off it first. i put on some of those vent visors on the doors and havent had a problem...so far. i guess all i would do is get different tape and try it again

I had the same tail light covers a while ago. I had them on for almost 2 years. I had to end up just glueing them on with some loctite. and they were fine after that.

i was going to suggest just gluing them too, but someone beat me to that idea...but if you dont want anything permanent id still try another type of tape
