How do I attach my ground effects?
I got some ground effects for my TA and they are in the process of being painted. When I bought the ground effects, they came with the mounting brackets but the spots welds were obviously sawed off the car.
My question is, how should I/can I reattach them? I don't know the first thing about welding and I don't want to pay a shop to do it. Someone suggested that I use self-tapping sheetmetal screws and screw them in from the bottom to hide the screws. I've also heard of import guys using this 3M adhesive/tape stuff. Any suggestions? Thanks!

don't listen to what import guys do! 3m adhesive tape for gfx?? why am i not surprised...
I don't know much about the firebird gfx. on camaros, the screw in from the bottom. I'm pretty sure you can self-tap them into the body, but take it off when you're done so you can put some anti-rust on the new tapped holes, or you're gonna end up with lots of problems down the road.
