Default fixing Sti winglets to a WRX

I had STi winglets painted and fitted to my car a couple of years ago, sadly they seem to be coming away from the bumper now and so I'm wondering how to stick them back on?
I remember an excellent fitting guide on a web page done by someone on here but I can't find it now.
At the moment they look like they've been fixed with double sided sticky foam. What would be the best thing to do? take them off and refit completely or try and stick the bit thats coming away back?

depends how they were fitted before, as if the slots are to big or the tabs cut off then you have nothing to work with, best to take them off and look how they are fitted, if only bonded on then maybe try some new double sided tape or silicon sealant.

Guide as above if the tabs have been cut off, you can only stick them back on.

Cheers guys, from the looks of it they're just bonded on, they definately haven't got the tabs on there. Allan, that's the guide I was on about. Many thanks
