BetaLink... any tips?
Hey guys and gals! So my BetaLink kit came in for my spoiler. Any tips you guys can recommend? Any do's and don't? Pictures would be great! Also, is this a one time use kit? I still need to get my roof spoiler painted and i don't know if using BetaLink on glass is ideal or uf i should just use 3m tape for that?

Just use 3m bro. That betalink crap is messy. I used betalink on my older bmw and man it was a nightmare to get off. 3m double sided will do the job perfectly.
If you really want to use it just keep it on the glass and nowhere near the weather stripping. Technically you can get the betalink off with a razor from the glass. In other words 3m 3m 3m 3m 3m lol |

i did use 3m and it just didn't feel solid. if it was a smaller spoiler like the M5 than yeah, but the 3d hangs off the edge a bit and if i press down i feel like it'll eventually come off. so i'm going to use BetaLink

So I'm gonna give it a try tomorrow. Does anyone know if regular masking tape will hold or painters tape? Or maybe some duck tape to hold it down while curing or will duck tape mess up the paint?

Figured I'd update this as I will let the Betalink cure for a few days since she's in storage at the moment. probably gonna use some black silicon to fillin some of the gaps. Someone posted they used this with great results
