High Rise Spoiler is coming off?!

Hey guys, I just traded in my LSJ for 2009 LNF and I personally Love the High Rise and it seems like on the LNF the right part of the base is coming off, How do you fix this and stick it back on the trunk firmly? Thanks! *Edit: Also I'm gettin like 16MPG in city with a 3" ZZP Staight pipe is that normal? Seems kinda low to me...

....does 16 mpg in a car that does high 20s sound normal to you? Either you have a lead foot or something is wrong.

Well bro I just got the car, I didnt think it was normal but the guy that I bought it from said that these get bad gas milage to begin with(19MPG) at least thats what he said, Upon getting the car looked at my mechanic said that their's a leak in the cat back exhaust which is a ZZP 3" Straight Pipe(No Muffler)

Stock Tune, This is how I bought the car, It looks as If now I'm gettin around 20MPG, LNF has the Mods in my sig and like I said that's how it came, My Tech at work said that I loosen like 2 bolts that hold the High Rise on and theirs some kind of Adhesive that goes on to stick the spoiler on as well, Anyone have to go through this?

Should be able to purchase the proper adhesive pads from the dealer.( Don't think they would be to expensive )
I think it's some kind of 3M product that would be in the proper shape.

take off the carpet cover on your trunk lid and try tightening the bolts that hold the spoiler in. if they are tight i would assume the base is broken

I'm going to say that your intake might be the cause of your low fuel efficiency. If your on the stock tune yet, I wouldn't suggest running that dejon intake because it skews the fuel trims so much. The only intakes that are acceptable* with a stock/gms1 tune are the Hahn or K&N. *Level of acceptability may differ by person

Also, I'm not sure if you know this or not, but on the stock tune those mods are worthless because the car just learns them down so that it is still only making the stock power.
