The tiger seal is the best option but just be really careful not to get it everywhere. Once its gone off it aint coming off. Also clean up both surfaces with spirit or nail varnish remover.

This is very true so be VERY VERY careful! Can not stress that enough! haha

and maybe even sand the part of the body work your sticking it to so it has something to grip onto not just smooth paint :)

Nice one - got the same thing on both sides of my GF's car causing the dash to say the doors are open too sometimes - really poorly stuck on in the factory!
