Rear spoiler: FINALLY!
OK, I know this isn't earth shattering or a custom job, but I finally got my rear spoiler installed. It's been sitting in the garage for 6 months or so and I finally got it on. Just had to post some pics for show.

It looks like your set up is a little easier for drilling, if you did.
Congrats.
If anyone wants to do it and does not want to drill, what I used is VHB tape that they use on aircraft and then after it cured I went around the edges with translucent phenoseal. It ain't going anywhere. You can lean on the bastard.....

See, I didn't want to drill into mine, so I put mine on with 3M. It's stable, but there's a bit of a gap. I've lost my templates, but I have all of the hardware. I was thinking of biting the bullet and drilling it when it warms up.

at first, i used 3m automotive tape (red stuff). after a month, and several hot days, it got weak and i could easly move it up and down.(not good) but instead of using the supplied hardware and instructions, i just used some thick sheet metal scews and just zipped em into the holes in the spoiler, then i put some silicone around them in case rust ever decided to develope there. this makes for a much more stiffer fitment than tape alone (i left the tape intact)
