Car door bumper strip adhesive

Try some double sided foam tape found in most hardware stores. You need the foam to absorb the thermal contractions and expansions. Clean both the paint and the rubber with alcohol before applying the tape

Although I never tried it on car trim, I might give E6000 adhesive a try. found in most craft stores. Sure worked good on my sneakers.

Don't use super glue,super glue breaks down after a relativly short time. Go to your local automotive store and buy 3M body trim adhesive, it is the one with the red plastic covering the tape. I use it for all kinds of things, once attached it is water resistant and holds tight in all climates and temps.

Oh, I forgot about the two holes, cars have different types of molding , you got the cheaper type. The holes are there for the more expensive trim that had inserts, which are attached to the trim and "pop" into the holes on the door.

I use 3M Fast Tack Trim Adhesive. Kind of surprised that an auto parts store wouldn't steer you in that direction...

All decent suggestions. However, the best way is to go to an automotive paint store and get some double sided tape. It is a black, really thin tape made just for your type of trim. All automotive paint stores will have the proper stuff for sticking trim back on to vehicles that have been painted. Even though yours hasn't been painted, you are in a similar situation.

Thank you everybody for your suggestions. The clerk at the store I visited must have been new and not aware of these things. I'll search for the products you've mentioned.

Thanks again,

David

rabid gerbils because they were offended that he said yellow was better th an black. I wouldn't tell anyone what adhesive I use. I'd keep it hidden so no one can see it. ?(?)?

I was going to quote that but the stones in my head just let it go too fast . I do notice the resemblance.
