Default Double-sided tape for lip kits, visors, spoilers.. TESA 4965 ok?

So I have a front and rear lip to install, as well as a roof spoiler and trunk spoiler. Does anyone have any experience with TESA 4965? Is it strong enough/just as good/stronger than the 3M stuff?

What would you suggest?

Just use 3M double sided tape its only a couple bucks and you cant go wrong with it. I used 3M for my front lip and it holds nice since day 1.

I'd go 3M all the way; I used it to attach JDM visors I got onto my IS.

Do you guys have specific part numbers? Or are you using the stuff that comes with the product? That stuff doesn't hold well for me at all.

Go to any auto body supply store or autozone,kragen, ect and they all should have 3m double sided tape.

I know where you can get it, I just want to know which is better. I guess I'll try doing more research on google.
