Did anyone have problems with the top eyebrows coming loose?

Seems that the double sided tape has gone south and the eyebrow pops out when driving due to the wind pushing it out.

What would be the best fix to resecure the top brow onto the front headlights?

3M double sided tape, make sure you get the one that says "Super Strong". That sucka ain't coming off for a lonnnng time.

Has anyone tried Gorilla tape or glue? I keep reading the adds in Motor Trend or RT that it is the strongest tape or glue on the planet.

Never tried it, but back when mom had an old school mercedes and wanted to put on those chrome fender flare thingys, I installed them with the 3M stuff. Years later when the rubber seal was falling apart I tried taking them off...that was no easy task. As long as you prep the surface well the 3M tape will hold it for a very long time.

Yeah, that stuff is strong.

Watch out though, dont put too much. It expands when it dries.

I learned the hard way on a project for physics =/.
We gorilla glued a motor onto a piece of wood. The glue expanded into the motor and got it stuck shut.
