Default trouble installing chrome bumper inserts

A couple of weeks ago, I ordered some goodies from Moss Motors for my cruiser (for my birthday). One of the things I got were the set of front and back chrome bumper inserts.

I have a 2001 Ltd Inferno Red with the grey bumpers.

I read the instructions and thoroughly cleaned my bumpers. I then used the adhesive solvent that came with the kit on the area. I started with the rear. I applied the 2 inserts on the rear. I could not get them to remain in place. They kept popping up on one end when I would press the opposite end. Seems like the curviture in the plastic did not properly match the curviture of the bumper. I tried and tried to get them to stick but nothing doing. I finally had to gently remove them.

I returned the inserts to Moss. They took them back with no complaint after hearing my explanation. Kudos to them for not giving me grief.

I was just wondering if any else has had a similar problem with any of the bumper inserts? I am disappointed that they didn't work, but I wouldn't want them falling off some time later. I am glad it happened early on.
