Molding adhesive?

I'm in the process of doing my s5 body conversion and have ran into a problem. When doing the pieces for the reflectors in front and back, the clip things that are supposed to go into the holes to hold them in broke off so I had to use some adhesive to hold it on. The s5 moldings are indented on the side that goes against the body, and the only thing I could find was 3m adhesive tape and that really isn't working out very well, the moldings pop off after a while.

Also, when I started to take the side moldings off I noticed that there was some kind of goop on it rather than strips of adhesive tape. I've also seen this in other threads but cannot find them now from searching. What is this stuff called? Where can you buy it?

i switched over from S4 to S5 moldings also. I tried the adhesive and double sided tape.. neither work.

i went to more industrial strength stuff... Liquid Nail bonding adhesive. Works for me now. You'll just have to sit there for awhile or keep something there to apply pressure until it dries.
