I got mine, but the weather here has been around 32 F lately. I'm worried the tape won't stick securely onto the windscreen. I've read on other forums that for 3M taped trunk spoilers, they should be applied when the temperature is at least 75 F unless you have a heat gun. I don't know if the same principle applies to glass.

And no, I don't have a heated garage. None of my friends do either. Should I just wait for spring to come😩

Reviving this thread, does anyone notice that on their Aero stabilizer that there is a small gap between the lip of the stabilizer and the glass itself? or are your guys' completely flush.

I had to remove mine and repress it down. Noticing a small gap consistently across the piece where you can see the adhesive between the glass and the piece itself. Pretty annoying.

Just checked and there is a small gap, only thing that ever get caught in there are these small leaves at my sisters house but nothing to bad lol

I bought a knock off aero stabilizer off of ebay for only $80. The fit was fine but it was slightly swirled. 2 months after it was installed, the 2 sided tape started to come apart from the plastic stabilizer. It stuck fine to the window as I used adhesion promoter. The 2 sided tape was already on the stabilizer when I received it and apparently they didn't install it correctly or just used cheap non3m tape.

Now that I have removed the stabilizer from the car, I'm debating on scraping off the rest of the tape from the plastic and using my own 3m tape to give it another go. The tape still isn't completely off the window yet either. I would have rather that it came without the cheap tape and a flat surface that would allow me to use my own 3m tape! UGH!
