Bro..i've read the installation manual. Seems like installing the sharkfin at night is not a proper time for the 3M to stick well to the cold roof surface..unless we use a hair dryer to warm up the surface first for a better bonding.
Yesterday i try to find alternative double sided tape (3M Premier as suggested by someone) at Ace Hardware but unfortunately they dont have it. Did u bought other double sided tape that can stick well than the stock 3M tape?
I was super sick... So I didn't actually had the time to go and buy any adhesive.

Actually I have thought of gluing the entire shark fin using dunlop glue. Similar to what I did for my emblem. From the instructions, it states that you need a hair dryer to heat it to room temperature, which is approximately 20-28 degrees. In Malaysia, it's all year round! Hahaha...
Another thing that we must keep in mind is that they use dishwashing liquid to remove the layer of wax which we don't have.. We instead have a layer of glass coating which to me, cannot be removed using soap. We could try using the 3M primer though.
