It fell off the other day. I still have it but its flapping around. What's the best way to reattach it?
I tried no more nails but didn't seem to do much

Serious

Literally paste it on really thick, tape the things on and leave for 24hours. Its what I did to my roof strip, i thought i put loads on then it ripped off. Decided as I had some time and nothing else to use i'd put half the tube on. that's not coming off in a hurry!!

well to be fair this was only after a few hours but it said '10 second hold' on the side of the no more nails tube.

Will inspect later (put it on yesterday) and apply more if needs be- been using blue tac for ages but it finally gave up at 90mph........ on a private road of course

If you use proper no more nails make sure you definitely don't want it to move - for example to have it sprayed (or have you already had this done?)

do you mean the little opaque plastic coloured bits that were originally held on with glue? I wasnt sure if these were attached to the pillar or the door maybe I have left them in then will have a look later

As for painting lee I'm not that bothered to be honest- might just plastidip them while they're on the car
