I ripped the side molding off of my door on my TSi because it was hanging a bit and I could see double stick on the other side. I took it all off when I parked my car and now I just dont get how to put it back on. Do I use some heavy-duty double stick or what!?!

It had some wire on the bottom that seemed to be Jerry-rigged to hold it together. I was wondering the correct way to replace these peices. I do still have the side peice, but it is a little wavy from hanging off a bit.
-----------\_______/-------- that's a little bit of how it looked on my door, thats from a top view looking down.

let it sit flat out in the sun for a while to try and get the waves out. Clean both surfaces really well and double stick it

Something like that its going to be a thicker spongey tape. Even menards could carry something like it. Just make sure its clean clean clean and you tape the front part well with no gaps in the tape to keep wind from getting behind it and possibly tearing it off on the road.
