For those with the Data Systems spoiler...

How did you guys install it? It comes with double sided tape but the tape is crappy and i want to have it more secured. There are no thread holes on the spoiler at hole. Even if i were to screw holes into it it would still vibrate a little and come looser down the line. I cant believe it doesnt come with no thread holes at all. anyway, for those who installed it, what did you do and how is it holding up. thanks.

I think you're supposed to use a combination of screws and the tape.

Upon my bodyshop's suggestion, they mounted with only 3M tape. Maybe they used other than what was provided, as it's rock-solid and has been on for a good while now.

As always with 3M tape, prep is the key.

clean with alcohol, mount with molding tape from 3M. the cleaner it is, the stickier it will be.

Should be.

And like I said, mine is still just as solid. This is my 2nd summer with it, so it's seen temp changes, water, time and speed.
