trunk lip steel plates coming off

Hello, I am a recent owner of 2021 X5 45e. While buying the car, I didn't notice the fact that steel looking lip on the trunk is loose and it comes off very easily. Previous owner probably used a tape to put it in place. Have any of you experience the same? What was your solution? I am thinking of couple of inches of double sided tape would do the job.

Do you see remnants of double-sided tape under the strip? If there are no holes for fasteners that is probably the way it was originally mounted.
