Any way to help hide the tape from Stillen ducts?
put em on today and I'm not thrilled with being able to see the side of the tape when viewed up close. I'll toss up some pics later.

I had the same problem. I ended up buying more tape. Then I removed the ducts and put the tape further back. You can still see a very small amount if you're really looking. I figure after a couple of months on the car, dirt and grime will get on that top part of the tape and it won't be white anymore.

glad to know I'm not the only one... I was thinking about a more permanent tube adhesive like a liquid nails

Re-did them today and they look MUCH better with the tape set back a little further... I also avoided taping the sides so they would sit more flush with the fascia... I still haven't ruled out using a liquid adhesive to ensure that flush fit all the way around, but for now they look much cleaner, and more "stock".
