Without having any experience with the kit, i assume it is to be glued on. Use some kind of glue that don't attack the polycarbonate, super glue can do this so i wouldn't have used this. Some Tech7 or similar is safe to use.

I am wondering this as well... I just ordered that AE86 shell and plan on putting off the bodykit for a while because I think its ridiculous how much they want to charge for it (i want to try and make my own).. But I did wonder how it gets attached.. .You might want to post this in the drift forum because a lot of guys rock that AE86 body. Let me know if you find out
