    I was wondering what kind of glue to use to attach the Anakin/Vader style grips to a metal pipe. (1 1/2 chrome sink tube)
    I NEED HELP!

    where did you get the grips from?

    Most places that sell grips usually have the attaching tape on the back.

    I think they mostly use 3M 2 sided tape - but I could be wrong on that

    They are actually made out of a long, t-shaped piece of black plastic used for making screen windows. I'm not sure tape will work well but I'll try it if the epoxy doesn't work.

    yea - plastic is a bit tougher than Rubber - the tape might not work.

    If the epoxy doesn't work you might want to try Carpet Tape - that should be more than strong enough to hold your grips on.
