Attaching rear wing using velcro
 
I bought a Dura flex M1 rear wing today for my 79 SA . I was wondering if i could attach it using velcro instead of bolting it down or using epoxy. I DONT want to drill my car or ruin the paint . Any suggestions or ideas?

3M double sided tape? Should hold stronger and worst case taking it off is a heat gun and adhesive remover

The double sided tape might work for awhile. Better than drilling if you don't want holes in the car I suppose.

+1 on the 3M double sided trim tape. Thats how they put them on at the dealerships back in the day.

I just got the part, it is exactly flush with the car so a lot of prep work will have to be done on the part itself. the wing itself is hollow so no area for tape=/

You could try RTV. Might be difficult to remove, maybe more or less the same as aggressive double stick, though.

The nice thing about RTV is it would have a very low profile.

The nice thing a bout double stick is it is instant.

I've used them in combination in the past, double stick to hold things until RTV cures.
