How do I get the side molding to stick to the fender?
Just got my car back from the body shop and the little side molding on the drivers side front fender behind the wheel in front of the door, is loose as hell, and I don't want to loose it. So how do I get it off all the way without breaking it? And how do I put it on, right? Are there connectors, or just some good stick-um?

Its just held on with double stick tape. If its falling off, some careful tugging should get it the rest of the way off no problem. The body shop SHOULD have caught this and fixed it when it was there.
However, I suggest you take it back to them to have it put back on with the correct double stick tape. Before you do, do some gentle tugging on the other moldings for other potential fall off candidates and get 'em all fixed when you go back. This problem is not uncommon.
I'd also ask them to give you a quantity of it as it is very handy to have around. If they can't, ask them where you can buy a roll.
