I'm getting a set of door caps ( I'm a RS) and wanna know what is the best way to securely mount em? Drilled holes/ grommets? double stick tape? thanks

May be the lame thing to do, like the old duct tape trick for other things, but I used cold-weld. Cold weld is like putty its at all auto stores. I lined the cap with it, slapped em on and let them sit overnight, wont come off no matter how hard you pull, or kick, or whatever.

what if u needed to repaint the car? Couldn't remove the caps. Or are there ways to still pull it after the cold weld?
