^^^^Did you seriously say bolt's? Do you mean the black pinecone push rivets?

THIN WALL double sided tape will hold it fine. If you get the thick double sided tape it tends to push the valence off the car more and it looks off.

I installed mine witht the push ins and tape, then i took clear adhesive silicone and put a bead on the inside (under the bumper) and smeared it in w/ my finger just for a little extra.

The tape that my valance came with didnt hold very long. Autozone sells a 3m tape that is made to attach door moldings and trim. It is on the car for good now!!
