I do have an unhealthy affinity for the aero kit. Overboost is correct. It uses a linear mile of double sided vhb-style tape. To remove a panel, say one of the fender flares, soak the seam in goo gone for a day. Tape the panels with a couple layers of painters tape, which will require cleaning the aforementioned goo gone from the face of the panel. Then use plastic pry tools to gently pry the panel away from the vehicle.

^ That's how I did it. Good luck, and have your liquid patience of choice at the ready.
