I have a full xenon kit and it comes with not a full rear bumper replacement but a rear lip...my problem is this... the kit brings 3M tape which is garbage and wont hold anything on for $hit...
So how did you guys attach your rear lips and what is a good adhesive to bond the urethane to the stock bumper cover?

Did you already take the rear lip off? If you have, are there any holes from where there could've been those plastic screws? I'm thinkin you can just copy those holes onto your new rear lip and then just screw them in as if it was a stock lip.

the lip comes with 3 tabs on it, one left one in the middle and one right in the exhaust opening for three screws, but these are not enough to keep it attached, it also comes with 3m tape to line the whole edge with and attach it to the rear bumper, but the tape is garbage and doesnt stick, Xenon recommends "dura-bond" instead but i have never ehard of it or have any idea where to get it...

id put some all purpose super glue on each side of 3m tape... that'll hold a train up to the ceiling.

try to find some comercial double-sided tape. The visual departement at my workplace used that kinda tape. It stick strong and I don't think it's 3M. The color is black and it's kinda like rubber/foam material. And yes.. put some screws on it.
