Argh!!! Splitters

Just venting - I bought a set of splitters on Sunday an have been waiting for them to arrive, today was the day - I couldn't wait to leave wok to come home and install them - after 2.5 hours, 2 trips to home depot and two full friggin rolls of 3m tape I still do not have even one side mounted!!!!!!!

This is definitely a two person job >:-( so frustrated

Good choice! I have them on my car, and absolutely love them. Quit screwing with tape however, use urethane. That will make the splitters basically permanent. Just use painters tape to keep them in place once fitted, and remove the tape after a few hours and you're set. Tape is a pita because you have to place it perfectly on the first shot. With urethane, you can move the splitters until you have them where you want them, then set em up. Good luck!
