UT Trunk Spoiler

I'm getting my UT spoiler painted now
Quite impressed with the quality but is double sided tape good enough to mount it?
Wondering wether I should glue it on with sikaflex instead.
Anyone with one fitted tell me the best option?

I had the body shop mount it with me. They prepped the trunk first and they used 3M double sided tape. The tape is gray with red covering. It would take quite a bit of effort to remove the spoiler - quite a bit.

I have the UT trunk spoiler also (which version you get?) and the double side tape is holding up fine

I have the medium sized one
Thanks for the info.
It also seems when test fitting that once the ends are in the correct position the centre section needs to be pulled rearwards to match the curve of the trunklid.

I also have a UT spoiler with double-sided tape. Almost 2 years, no problems.
