Default 2004 black on black accord w/ body issues

Very excited! Just picked up a used 2004 black on black accord v6 6 speed . However I had some questions if you guys can help me out...

Q1. It seems like the original owner had installed side skirts and back however some areas started to "space out / flare out" not sure how to properly secure them back into place? read a few threads that said to glue? and some that says to use 3m double sided tape? However what is the proper way of securing these back into place? I like the idea of 3m double sided tape but worried after a car wash or rain.... it should lose its sticky'ness and flare back out... below are some pics of what I mean...

Q2. The driver side window has the inner side of the "door sheeting" curling upwards... I dont know what the actual term is however its not the plastic covering the door panel but the part thats wrapped around the inside of the door from the cabin upto where the window starts... again I have pics below to better describe the problem here.... I've tried to use gaffer's tape but interestingly enough refuses to stick to the "door sheeting" seems like a certain type of glue is needed to re-secure them back inside?

3m double sided tape, is awsome.. Look at cars almost all use it in some shape on the side skirts or side molding. I use it one everything that I need to attach on the side of vehicals and places you wouldnt ant to use screws to attach.... So yes the 3m stuff should hold up to pressure washing and normal day in and out stuff.

The door car stuff you need to to have them glued back down. Just take it off and take it into any autobody upholstery shop and they should be able to fix it.
